Let $X_i$ denote free identically-distributed random variables. This paper investigates how the norm of products $\Pi_n=X_1 X_2 ... X_n$ behaves as $n$ approaches infinity. In addition, for positive $X_i$ it studies the asymptotic behavior…

For a given finite set $\Sigma$ of matrices with nonnegative integer entries we study the growth of $$ \max_t(\Sigma) = \max\{\|A_{1}... A_{t}\|: A_i \in \Sigma\}.$$ We show how to determine in polynomial time whether the growth with $t$ is…

For fixed $m>1$, we consider $m$ independent $n \times n$ non-Hermitian random matrices $X_1, ..., X_m$ with i.i.d. centered entries with a finite $(2+\eta)$-th moment, $ \eta>0.$ As $n$ tends to infinity, we show that the empirical…

Suppose that A_1,\dots, A_N are independent random matrices whose atoms are iid copies of a random variable \xi of mean zero and variance one. It is known from the works of Newman et. al. in the late 80s that when \xi is gaussian then…

Let $X_1,\dots,X_n$ be independent centered random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$. This paper shows that, even when $d$ may grow with $n$, the probability $P(n^{-1/2}\sum_{i=1}^nX_i\in A)$ can be approximated by its Gaussian analog uniformly in…

Suppose $\{ X_k \}_{k \in \mathbb{Z}}$ is a sequence of bounded independent random matrices with common dimension $d\times d$ and common expectation $\mathbb{E}[ X_k ]= X$. Under these general assumptions, the normalized random matrix…

In this text we study the regularity of matrices with special polynomial entries. Barring some mild conditions we show that these matrices are regular if a natural limit size is not exceeded. The proof draws connections to generalized…

Let X_N= (X_1^(N), ..., X_p^(N)) be a family of N-by-N independent, normalized random matrices from the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble. We state sufficient conditions on matrices Y_N =(Y_1^(N), ..., Y_q^(N)), possibly random but independent of…

In this short note, we study the behaviour of a product of matrices with a simultaneous renormalization. Namely, for any sequence $(A\_n)\_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ of $d\times d$ complex matrices whose mean $A$ exists and whose norms' means are…

Let $\{A_{i,n}\}$ be a triangular array of elements in a Banach algebra, whose norms do not grow too fast, and whose row averages converge to $A$. Let $\sigma \in S(n)$ be a permutation drawn uniformly at random. If the array only contains…

Let $r=r(n)$ be a sequence of integers such that $r\leq n$ and let $X_1,\ldots,X_{r+1}$ be independent random points distributed according to the Gaussian, the Beta or the spherical distribution on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Limit theorems for the…

In this paper, we study the expectation of the operator norm of the random matrix (a_{ij} X_{ij}) for i,j <= n, under the assumption that the random variables (X_{ij}) are independent, symmetric and satisfy the moment growth condition…

We consider the recursion $X_{n+1}=\sum_{i=0}^n \epsilon_{n,i}X_{n-i}$, where $\epsilon_{n,i}$ are i.i.d. (Bernoulli) random variables taking values in $\{-1,1\}$, and $X_0=1$, $X_{-j}=0$ for $j>0$. We prove that almost surely, $n^{-1}\log…
