Let $M_n$ be an $n \times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. sparse discrete entries. In this paper, we develop a simple framework to solve the approximate Spielman-Teng theorem for $M_n$, which has the following form: There exist constants $C,…
In this paper we consider $N \times N $ matrices $D_{N}$ with i.i.d. entries all following an $a-$stable law divided by $N^{1/a}$. We prove that the least singular value of $D_{N}$, multiplied by $N$, tends to the same law as in the…
Let $V$ be a nonempty finite set and $A=(a_{ij})_{i,j\in V}$ be a matrix with entries in a field $\mathbb{K}$. For a subset $X$ of $V$, we denote by $A[X]$ the submatrix of $A$ having row and column indices in $X$. We study the following…
The diagonalization of matrices may be the top priority in the application of modern physics. In this paper, we numerically demonstrate that, for real symmetric random matrices with non-positive off-diagonal elements, a universal scaling…
We take a first small step to extend the validity of Rudelson-Vershynin type estimates to some sparse random matrices, here random permutation matrices. We give lower (and upper) bounds on the smallest singular value of a large random…
We obtain nonasymptotic bounds on the spectral norm of random matrices with independent entries that improve significantly on earlier results. If $X$ is the $n\times n$ symmetric matrix with $X_{ij}\sim N(0,b_{ij}^2)$, we show that…
The trace norm of a matrix is the sum of its singular values. This paper presents results on the minimum trace norm $\psi_{n}\left( m\right) $ of $\left( 0,1\right) $-matrices of size $n\times n$ with exactly $m$ ones. It is shown that: (1)…
For a non-square positive integer x, let k_x denote the distance between x^3 and the perfect square closest to x^3. A conjecture of Marshall Hall states that the ratios r_x = (x^(1/2))/k_x, are bounded above. (Elkies has shown that any such…
In an earlier paper, we discussed the probability that the determinant of a matrix undergoes the least change upon perturbation of one of its elements, provided that most or all of the elements of the matrix are chosen at random and that…
Random matrix theory allows for the deduction of stability criteria for complex systems using only a summary knowledge of the statistics of the interactions between components. As such, results like the well-known elliptical law are…
Let $K_n$ be the set of all $n\times n$ lower triangular (0,1)-matrices with each diagonal element equal to $1$, $L_n = \{ YY^T: Y\in K_n\}$ and let \begin{equation*} c_n = \min_{Z\in L_n} \left\lbrace \mu_n^{(1)}(Z):\mu_n^{(1)} (Z) \text{…
We consider the joint distribution of real and imaginary parts of eigenvalues of random matrices with independent entries with mean zero and unit variance. We prove the convergence of this distribution to the uniform distribution on the…
We consider $n^2\times n^2$ real symmetric and hermitian matrices $M_n$, which are equal to sum of $m_n$ tensor products of vectors $X^\mu=B(Y^\mu\otimes Y^\mu)$, $\mu=1,\dots,m_n$, where $Y^\mu$ are i.i.d. random vectors from $\mathbb R^n…

In this paper, we consider the singular values and singular vectors of finite, low rank perturbations of large rectangular random matrices. Specifically, we prove almost sure convergence of the extreme singular values and appropriate…
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…
We compute analytically the probability distribution and moments of the sum and product of the non-zero eigenvalues and singular values of random matrices with (i) non-negative entries, (ii) fixed rank, and (iii) prescribed sums of the…
Mason's Conjecture asserts that for an $m$--element rank $r$ matroid $\M$ the sequence $(I_k/\binom{m}{k}: 0\leq k\leq r)$ is logarithmically concave, in which $I_k$ is the number of independent $k$--sets of $\M$. A related conjecture in…
We consider random $n\times n$ matrices of the form $Y_n=\frac1{\sqrt{d}}A_n\circ X_n$, where $A_n$ is the adjacency matrix of a uniform random $d$-regular directed graph on $n$ vertices, with $d=\lfloor p n\rfloor$ for some fixed $p \in…
