We compute the limiting distributions of the largest eigenvalue of a complex Gaussian sample covariance matrix when both the number of samples and the number of variables in each sample become large. When all but finitely many, say $r$,…
We derive concentration inequalities for the spectral measure of large random matrices, allowing for certain forms of dependence. Our main focus is on empirical covariance (Wishart) matrices, but general symmetric random matrices are also…
Let $X_1,\dots, X_n$ be independent and identically distributed random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Suppose $\mathbb{E} X_1=0$, $\mathrm{Cov}(X_1)=I_d$, where $I_d$ is the $d\times d$ identity matrix. Suppose further that there exist positive…
In this article, we develop a framework to study the large deviation principle for matrix models and their quantized versions, by tilting the measures using the limits of spherical integrals obtained in [46,47]. As examples, we obtain 1. a…
We study the partial transposition ${W}^\Gamma=(\mathrm{id}\otimes \mathrm{t})W\in M_{dn}(\mathbb C)$ of a Wishart matrix $W\in M_{dn}(\mathbb C)$ of parameters $(dn,dm)$. Our main result is that, with $d\to\infty$, the law of $m{W}^\Gamma$…

We study the problem of change point detection for covariance matrices in high dimensions. We assume that we observe a sequence {X_i}_{i=1,...,n} of independent and centered p-dimensional sub-Gaussian random vectors whose covariance…
We study the limiting spectral distribution of sample covariance matrices $XX^T$, where $X$ are $p\times n$ random matrices with correlated entries, for the cases $p/n\to y\in [0,\infty)$. If $y>0$, we obtain the Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur…
Gaussian covariance graph models encode marginal independence among the components of a multivariate random vector by means of a graph $G$. These models are distinctly different from the traditional concentration graph models (often also…
An invariant ensemble of $N\times N$ random matrices can be characterised by a joint distribution for eigenvalues $P(\lambda_1,\cdots,\lambda_N)$. The study of the distribution of linear statistics, i.e. of quantities of the form…
We propose a novel algorithm to estimate the channel covariance matrix of a desired user in multiuser massive MIMO systems. The algorithm uses only knowledge of the array response and rough knowledge of the angular support of the incoming…
We study a class of random matrices that appear in several communication and signal processing applications, and whose asymptotic eigenvalue distribution is closely related to the reconstruction error of an irregularly sampled bandlimited…
