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…

This is a continuation of our earlier paper on the universality of the eigenvalues of Wigner random matrices. The main new results of this paper are an extension of the results in that paper from the bulk of the spectrum up to the edge. In…

In this paper we consider a new normalization of matrices obtained by choosing distinct codewords at random from linear codes over finite fields and find that under some natural algebraic conditions of the codes their empirical spectral…

This paper investigates global and local laws for sample covariance matrices with general growth rates of dimensions. The sample size $N$ and population dimension $M$ can have the same order in logarithm, which implies that their ratio…

We derive the Marchenko-Pastur (MP) law for sample covariance matrices of the form $V_n=\frac{1}{n}XX^T$, where $X$ is a $p\times n$ data matrix and $p/n\to y\in(0,\infty)$ as $n,p \to \infty$. We assume the data in $X$ stems from a…

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…

We consider the adjacency matrices of sparse random graphs from the Chung-Lu model, where edges are added independently between the $N$ vertices with varying probabilities $p_{ij}$. The rank of the matrix $(p_{ij})$ is some fixed positive…

We prove the Marchenko-Pastur law for the eigenvalues of $p \times p$ sample covariance matrices in two new situations where the data does not have independent coordinates. In the first scenario - the block-independent model - the $p$…

Several well-known results from the random matrix theory, such as Wigner's law and the Marchenko--Pastur law, can be interpreted (and proved) in terms of non-backtracking walks on a certain graph. Orthogonal polynomials with respect to the…

We consider complex sample covariance matrices $M_N=\frac{1}{N}YY^*$ where $Y$ is a $N \times p$ random matrix with i.i.d. entries $Y_{ij}, 1\leq i\leq N, 1\leq j \leq p$ with distribution $F$. Under some regularity and decay assumption on…

The aim of this paper is to prove a local version of the circular law for non-Hermitian random matrices and its generalization to the product of non-Hermitian random matrices under weak moment conditions. More precisely we assume that the…

We consider the random matrix obtained by picking vectors randomly from a large collection of mutually unbiased bases of $\mathbb{C}^n$, and prove that the spectral distribution converges to the Marchenko-Pastur law. This shows that vectors…

We prove local laws, i.e. optimal concentration estimates for arbitrary products of resolvents of a Wigner random matrix with deterministic matrices in between. We find that the size of such products heavily depends on whether some of the…

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…
