We consider certain large random matrices, called random inner-product kernel matrices, which are essentially given by a nonlinear function $f$ applied entrywise to a sample-covariance matrix, $f(X^TX)$, where $X \in \mathbb{R}^{d \times…

In this paper we discuss the notion of universality for classes of candidate common Lyapunov functions of linear switched systems. On the one hand, we prove that a family of absolutely homogeneous functions is universal as soon as it…

We develop a unified approach to universality of local scaling limits for eigenvalues of random normal matrices, or equivalently for planar Coulomb gases at inverse temperature $\beta=2$. The approach is direct in that it does not rely on…

We consider N x N matrices with complex entries that are perturbed by a complex Gaussian matrix with small variance. We prove that if the unperturbed matrix satisfies certain local laws then the bulk correlation functions are universal in…

We prove universality for cokernels of random integral matrices with symmetries via an approach different from the classical surjection moment method introduced by Wood (arXiv:1402.5149). In the symmetric case, we reprove Hodges'…

We consider complex, weakly non-Hermitian matrices $A = W_1 +i\sqrt{{\tau}_N}W_2$ , where $W_1$ and $W_2$ are Hermitian matrices and $\tau_N = O(N^{-1})$. We first show that for pairs of Hermitian matrices $(W_1 , W_2)$ such that $W_1$…

We prove the bulk universality of the $\beta$-ensembles with non-convex regular analytic potentials for any $\beta>0$. This removes the convexity assumption appeared in our earlier work. The convexity condition enabled us to use the…

Universality of eigenvalue spacings is one of the basic characteristics of random matrices. We give the precise meaning of universality and discuss the standard universality classes (sine, Airy, Bessel) and their appearance in unitary,…

We study generalized splines from the perspective of the representation theory of the category of graphs with contractions. Our main theorem proves a kind of finite generation, which in turn implies the existence of a ``universal generating…

We link the appearance of universal kernels in random matrix ensembles to the phenomenon of shock formation in some fluid dynamical equations. Such equations are derived from Dyson's random walks after a proper rescaling of the time. In the…

The spectral theory on the $S$-spectrum was born out of the need to give quaternionic quantum mechanics (formulated by Birkhoff and von Neumann) a precise mathematical foundation. Then it turned out that this theory has important…
