Given a sample $X_0,...,X_{n-1}$ from a $d$-dimensional stationary time series $(X_t)_{t \in \mathbb{Z}}$, the most commonly used estimator for the spectral density matrix $F(\theta)$ at a given frequency $\theta \in [0,2\pi)$ is the…
Let $\mathbf X=(X_{jk})$ denote a $n\times p$ random matrix with entries $X_{jk}$, which are independent for $1\le j\le n, 1\le k\le p$. Let $n,p$ tend to infinity such that $\frac np=y+O(n^{-1})\in(0,1]$. For those values of $n,p$ we…
Let $X$ be a max-stable random vector with positive continuous density. It is proved that the conditional independence of any collection of disjoint sub-vectors of $X$ given the remaining components implies their joint independence. We…
We study high-dimensional sample covariance matrices based on independent random vectors with missing coordinates. The presence of missing observations is common in modern applications such as climate studies or gene expression…
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…
We study the analogue of Kummer distribution in free probability. We prove characterization of free-Kummer and free Poisson distributions by freeness properties together with some assumptions about conditional moments. Our main tools are…
We propose a sequential, anytime-valid method to test the conditional independence of a response $Y$ and a predictor $X$ given a random vector $Z$. The proposed test is based on e-statistics and test martingales, which generalize likelihood…
Consider a sample of a centered random vector with unit covariance matrix. We show that under certain regularity assumptions, and up to a natural scaling, the smallest and the largest eigenvalues of the empirical covariance matrix converge,…
We investigate Laha-Lukacs properties of noncommutative random variables (processes). We prove that some families of free Meixner distributions can be characterized by the conditional moments of polynomial functions of degree 3. We also…
We prove that the empirical spectral distribution of a (d_L, d_R)-biregular, bipartite random graph, under certain conditions, converges to a symmetrization of the Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur distribution of random matrix theory. This convergence…
The free Meixner laws arise as the distributions of orthogonal polynomials with constant-coefficient recursions. We show that these are the laws of the free pairs of random variables which have linear regressions and quadratic conditional…
In this paper we study a Matsumoto-Yor type property for the gamma and Kummer inde- pendent variables discovered in Koudou and Vallois (2012). We prove that constancy of regressions of U = (1 + 1/(X + Y ))=(1 + 1/X) given V = X + Y and of…
The traditional class of elliptical distributions is extended to allow for asymmetries. A completely robust dispersion matrix estimator (the `spectral estimator') for the new class of `generalized elliptical distributions' is presented. It…
In this paper, we consider the empirical spectral distribution of the sample correlation matrix and investigate its asymptotic behavior under mild assumptions on the data's distribution, when dimension and sample size increase at the same…
We study the eigenvalue of the Wishart matrix, which is created from a time series with temporal correlation. When there is no correlation, the eigenvalue distribution of the Wishart matrix is known as the Marchenko-Pastur distribution…
We prove that if $p\ge 1$ and $0< r\le p$ then the sequence $\binom{mp+r}{m}\frac{r}{mp+r}$, $m=0,1,2,...$, is positive definite, more precisely, is the moment sequence of a probability measure $\mu(p,r)$ with compact support contained in…
We study the spectral norm of random kernel matrices with polynomial scaling, where the number of samples scales polynomially with the data dimension. In this regime, Lu and Yau (2022) proved that the empirical spectral distribution…
We consider the problem of determining the limiting spectral distribution for random matrices whose row distributions are permitted to have limited dependence. We assume mild moment conditions and give an extension of the…
We consider the problem of consistently estimating the conditional distribution $P(Y \in A |X)$ of a functional data object $Y=(Y(t): t\in[0,1])$ given covariates $X$ in a general space, assuming that $Y$ and $X$ are related by a functional…
In this note we develop an extension of the Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur theorem to time series model with temporal correlations. The limiting spectral distribution (LSD) of the sample covariance matrix is characterised by an explicit equation for…
