We study the recovery of the distribution function $F_X$ of a random variable $X$ that is subject to an independent additive random error $\varepsilon$. To be precise, it is assumed that the target variable $X$ is available only in the form…

We consider random matrices that have invariance properties under the action of unitary groups (either a left-right invariance, or a conjugacy invariance), and we give formulas for moments in terms of functions of eigenvalues. Our main tool…

We study the eigenvalue distribution of a random matrix, at a transition where a new connected component of the eigenvalue density support appears away from other connected components. Unlike previously studied critical points, which…
