Abstract
Let be an matrix with iid entries where is a Bernoulli random variable with parameter . We show that the empirical measure of the eigenvalues converges, in probability, to a deterministic distribution as . This essentially resolves a long line of work to determine the spectral laws of iid matrices and is the first known example for non-Hermitian random matrices at this level of sparsity.
