We observe a $N\times M$ matrix of independent, identically distributed Gaussian random variables which are centered except for elements of some submatrix of size $n\times m$ where the mean is larger than some $a>0$. The submatrix is sparse…

We present an analytical technique to compute the probability of rare events in which the largest eigenvalue of a random matrix is atypically large (i.e.\ the right tail of its large deviations). The results also transfer to the left tail…

This paper is to investigate the spectral properties of sample covariance matrices under a more general population. We consider a class of matrices of the form $\mathbf S_n=\frac1n\mathbf B_n\mathbf X_n\mathbf X_n^*\mathbf B_n^*$, where…

In this paper, we consider the log-concave ensemble of random matrices, a class of covariance-type matrices $XX^*$ with isotropic log-concave $X$-columns. A main example is the covariance estimator of the uniform measure on isotropic convex…

We show that the empirical distribution of the eigenvalues of the sample covariance matrix of certain random vectors (not necessarily independent entries) with bounded marginal $L^{4}$ norms converges weakly to a compound free Poisson…

We show that the gap between the two greatest eigenvalues of the generalised Petersen graphs $P(n,k)$ tends to zero as $n \rightarrow \infty$. Moreover, we provide explicit upper bounds on the size of this gap. It follows that these graphs…

The coherence of a random matrix, which is defined to be the largest magnitude of the Pearson correlation coefficients between the columns of the random matrix, is an important quantity for a wide range of applications including…

We consider the random matrix ensemble with an external source \[ \frac{1}{Z_n} e^{-n \Tr({1/2}M^2 -AM)} dM \] defined on $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices, where $A$ is a diagonal matrix with only two eigenvalues $\pm a$ of equal…

We analyze statistics for eigenvector entries of heavy-tailed random symmetric matrices (also called L\'{e}vy matrices) whose associated eigenvalues are sufficiently small. We show that the limiting law of any such entry is non-Gaussian,…
