Wishart random matrices are often used to model multivariate systems in physics, finance, biology and wireless communication. Extreme value statistics, such as those of the smallest eigenvalue, can be used to test the accuracy of the model.…
We study the fluctuations of the largest eigenvalue $\lambda_{\max}$ of $N \times N$ random matrices in the limit of large $N$. The main focus is on Gaussian $\beta$-ensembles, including in particular the Gaussian orthogonal ($\beta=1$),…

It is well known that most of the existing theoretical results in statistics are based on the assumption that the sample is generated with replacement from an infinite population. However, in practice, available samples are almost always…

For a beta-Jacobi ensemble determined by parameters a_1, a_2 and n, under the restriction that the three parameters go to infinity with n and a_1 being of small orders of a_2, we obtain both the bulk and the edge scaling limits. In…
We consider the Laguerre Unitary Ensemble (aka, Wishart Ensemble) of sample covariance matrices $A = XX^*$, where $X$ is an $N \times n$ matrix with iid standard complex normal entries. Under the scaling $n = N + \lfloor \sqrt{ 4 c N}…
The eigenvalue correlations of random matrices from the Jacobi Unitary Ensemble have a known asymptotic behavior as their size tends to infinity. In the bulk of the spectrum the behavior is described in terms of the sine kernel, and at the…
This paper is aimed at deriving the universality of the largest eigenvalue of a class of high-dimensional real or complex sample covariance matrices of the form $\mathcal{W}_N=\Sigma^{1/2}XX^*\Sigma ^{1/2}$. Here, $X=(x_{ij})_{M,N}$ is an…

We study the sample covariance matrix for real-valued data with general population covariance, as well as MANOVA-type covariance estimators in variance components models under null hypotheses of global sphericity. In the limit as matrix…
This paper investigates global and local laws for sample covariance matrices with general growth rates of dimensions. The sample size $N$ and population dimension $M$ can have the same order in logarithm, which implies that their ratio…
In this paper, we consider the log-concave ensemble of random matrices, a class of covariance-type matrices $XX^*$ with isotropic log-concave $X$-columns. A main example is the covariance estimator of the uniform measure on isotropic convex…

Bandeira et al. (2017) show that the eigenvalues of the Kendall correlation matrix of $n$ i.i.d. random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^p$ are asymptotically distributed like $1/3 + (2/3)Y_q$, where $Y_q$ has a Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur law with parameter…
