Let $M_{n}$ denote a random symmetric $n\times n$ matrix, whose entries on and above the diagonal are i.i.d. Rademacher random variables (taking values $\pm 1$ with probability $1/2$ each). Resolving a conjecture of Vu, we prove that the…
We consider random permutations which are spherically symmetric with respect to a metric on the symmetric group $S_n$ and are consistent as $n$ varies. The extreme infinitely spherically symmetric permutation-valued processes are identified…
