Let $S=XX^T$ be the (unscaled) sample covariance matrix where $X$ is a real $p \times n$ matrix with independent entries. It is well known that if the entries of $X$ are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) with enough moments…

This paper studies the limiting behavior of Tyler's M-estimator for the scatter matrix, in the regime that the number of samples $n$ and their dimension $p$ both go to infinity, and $p/n$ converges to a constant $y$ with $0<y<1$. We prove…

We prove a general local law for Wigner matrices which optimally handles observables of arbitrary rank and thus it unifies the well-known averaged and isotropic local laws. As an application, we prove that the quadratic forms of a general…

We prove the Marchenko-Pastur theorem for random matrices with i.i.d. rows and a general dependence structure within the rows by a simple modification of the standard Cauchy-Stieltjes resolvent method.

This paper is the first chapter of three of the author's undergraduate thesis. We study the random matrix ensemble of covariance matrices arising from random $(d_b, d_w)$-regular bipartite graphs on a set of $M$ black vertices and $N$ white…

We consider the local eigenvalue distribution of large self-adjoint $N\times N$ random matrices $\mathbf{H}=\mathbf{H}^*$ with centered independent entries. In contrast to previous works the matrix of variances $s_{ij} = \mathbb{E}\,…

We study the asymptotic of the spectral distribution for large empirical covariance matrices composed of independent Multifractal Random Walk processes. The asymptotic is taken as the observation lag shrinks to 0. In this setting, we show…

This paper is concerned with extensions of the classical Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur law to time series. Specifically, $p$-dimensional linear processes are considered which are built from innovation vectors with independent, identically distributed…

We analyse the spectrum of additive finite-rank deformations of $N \times N$ Wigner matrices $H$. The spectrum of the deformed matrix undergoes a transition, associated with the creation or annihilation of an outlier, when an eigenvalue…

In statistics, assuming samples are independent is reasonable. However, this property can fail to hold for the features, a distinction that has led to several lines of work aiming to remove the latter assumption of independence present in…

We obtain the limiting spectral distribution for large sample covariance matrices associated with random vectors having graph-dependent entries under the assumption that the interdependence among the entries grows with the sample size n.…

It is known that the empirical spectral distribution of random matrices obtained from linear codes of increasing length converges to the well-known Marchenko-Pastur law, if the Hamming distance of the dual codes is at least 5. In this…

We consider a class of real random matrices with dependent entries and show that the limiting empirical spectral distribution is given by the Marchenko-Pastur law. Additionally, we establish a rate of convergence of the expected empirical…

It is known (Hofmann-Credner and Stolz (2008)) that the convergence of the mean empirical spectral distribution of a sample covariance matrix W_n = 1/n Y_n Y_n^t to the Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur law remains unaffected if the rows and columns of…

We prove that Kendall's Rank correlation matrix converges to the Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur law, under the assumption that the observations are i.i.d random vectors $X_1$, $\dots$, $X_n$ with components that are independent and absolutely…

For a class of symmetric random matrices whose entries are martingale differences adapted to an increasing filtration, we prove that under a Lindeberg-like condition, the empirical spectral distribution behaves asymptotically similarly to a…

In this paper we prove the universality of covariance matrices of the form $H_{N\times N}={X}^{\dagger}X$ where $X$ is an ${M\times N}$ rectangular matrix with independent real valued entries $x_{ij}$ satisfying $\mathbb{E}x_{ij}=0$ and…

We prove the convergence of the empirical spectral measure of Wishart matrices with size-dependent entries and characterize the limiting law by its moments. We apply our result to the cases where the entries are Bernoulli variables with…

It is shown that the Kolmogorov distance between the spectral distribution function of a random covariance matrix $\frac1p XX^T$, where $X$ is a $n\times p$ matrix with independent entries and the distribution function of the…

We study the resolvent \[ G^z = \left(\frac{1}{n}XX^T - zI_p\right)^{-1}, \qquad z\in\mathbb C,\ \Im(z)>0, \] where $X=(x_1,\ldots,x_n)\in\mathcal M_{p,n}$ is a random matrix with independent, but not necessarily identically distributed,…
