Let $A$ be a $n\times n$ complex Hermitian matrix and let $\lambda(A)=(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_n)\in \mathbb{R}^n$ denote the eigenvalues of $A$, counting multiplicities and arranged in non-increasing order. Motivated by problems arising…
Motivated by applications such as sparse PCA, in this paper we present provably-accurate one-pass algorithms for the sparse approximation of the top eigenvectors of extremely massive matrices based on a single compact linear sketch. The…

We consider the minimization or maximization of the $J$th largest eigenvalue of an analytic and Hermitian matrix-valued function, and build on Mengi et al. (2014, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl., 35, 699-724). This work addresses the setting…
Estimating the number of eigenvalues located in a given interval of a large sparse Hermitian matrix is an important problem in certain applications and it is a prerequisite of eigensolvers based on a divide-and-conquer paradigm. Often an…
We discuss an application of the random matrix theory in the context of estimating the bipartite entanglement of a quantum system. We discuss how the Wishart ensemble (the earliest studied random matrix ensemble) appears in this quantum…
We derive efficient recursive formulas giving the exact distribution of the largest eigenvalue for finite dimensional real Wishart matrices and for the Gaussian Orthogonal Ensemble (GOE). In comparing the exact distribution with the…

Non-smoothness at optimal points is a common phenomenon in many eigenvalue optimization problems. We consider two recent algorithms to minimize the largest eigenvalue of a Hermitian matrix dependent on one parameter, both proven to be…
We study the phenomenon of "crowding" near the largest eigenvalue $\lambda_{\max}$ of random $N \times N$ matrices belonging to the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE) of random matrix theory. We focus on two distinct quantities: (i) the…
The purpose of this paper is to establish universality of the fluctuations of the largest eigenvalue of some non necessarily Gaussian complex Deformed Wigner Ensembles. The real model is also considered. Our approach is close to the one…
In this paper, we show that the largest and smallest eigenvalues of a sample correlation matrix stemming from $n$ independent observations of a $p$-dimensional time series with iid components converge almost surely to $(1+\sqrt{\gamma})^2$…
A number of random matrix ensembles permitting exact determination of their eigenvalue and eigenvector statistics maintain this property under a rank $1$ perturbation. Considered in this review are the additive rank $1$ perturbation of the…
We study Bayesian inference in the spiked covariance model, where a small number of spiked eigenvalues dominate the spectrum. Our goal is to infer the spiked eigenvalues, their corresponding eigenvectors, and the number of spikes, providing…
The eigenvalue density for members of the Gaussian orthogonal and unitary ensembles follows the Wigner semi-circle law. If the Gaussian entries are all shifted by a constant amount c/Sqrt(2N), where N is the size of the matrix, in the large…
A "mysterious" relation between the number variance and the variance of the $L$-th ordered eigenvalue, first suggested by French et al. [Ann. Phys. 113, 277 (1978)], is revisited and proven to be asymptotically exact for the $\beta=2$ Dyson…
We study properties and algorithms of a minimization problem of the maximum generalized eigenvalue of symmetric-matrix-valued affine functions, which is nonsmooth and quasiconvex, and has application to eigenfrequency optimization of truss…
We investigate the statistical properties of eigenvalues of pseudo-Hermitian random matrices whose eigenvalues are real or complex conjugate. It is shown that when the spectrum splits into separated sets of real and complex conjugate…
