The probability that there are $k$ real eigenvalues for an $n$ dimensional real random matrix is known. Here we study this for the case of products of independent random matrices. Relating the problem of the probability that the product of…

With $\{X_i\}$ independent $N \times N$ standard Gaussian random matrices, the probability $p_{N,N}^{P_m}$ that all eigenvalues are real for the matrix product $P_m = X_m X_{m-1} \cdots X_1$ is expressed in terms of an $N/2 \times N/2$ ($N$…

The probability that all eigenvalues of a product of $m$ independent $N \times N$ sub-blocks of a Haar distributed random real orthogonal matrix of size $(L_i+N) \times (L_i+N)$, $(i=1,\dots,m)$ are real is calculated as a multi-dimensional…

For a fixed $n\ge2$, consider an $n\times n$ matrix $M$ whose entries are random integers bounded by $k$ in absolute value. In this paper, we examine the probability that $M$ is singular (hence has eigenvalue 0), and the probability that…

We study the properties of the eigenvalues of real random matrices and their products. It is known that when the matrix elements are Gaussian-distributed independent random variables, the fraction of real eigenvalues tends to unity as the…

A well-known fact in linear algebra is that $A^T A$ is always positive semi-definite for any real matrix $A$. We consider a generalization of this fact via the following decision problem. Given a symbolic product of length $k$, consisting…

Random matrices formed from i.i.d. standard real Gaussian entries have the feature that the expected number of real eigenvalues is non-zero. This property persists for products of such matrices, independently chosen, and moreover it is…

Let M be an arbitrary Hermitian matrix of order n, and k be a positive integer less than or equal to n. We show that if k is large, the distribution of eigenvalues on the real line is almost the same for almost all principal submatrices of…

Random matrices arise in many mathematical contexts, and it is natural to ask about the properties that such matrices satisfy. If we choose a matrix with integer entries at random, for example, what is the probability that it will have a…

Given tuples of properly normalized independent $N\times N$ G.U.E. matrices $(X_N^{(1)},\dots,X_N^{(r_1)})$ and $(Y_N^{(1)},\dots,Y_N^{(r_2)})$, we show that the tuple $(X_N^{(1)}\otimes I_N,\dots,X_N^{(r_1)}\otimes I_N,I_N\otimes…

A truncation of a Haar distributed orthogonal random matrix gives rise to a matrix whose eigenvalues are either real or complex conjugate pairs, and are supported within the closed unit disk. This is also true for a product $P_m$ of $m$…

Let $\mathbf{X}_p=(\mathbf{s}_1,...,\mathbf{s}_n)=(X_{ij})_{p \times n}$ where $X_{ij}$'s are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables with $EX_{11}=0,EX_{11}^2=1$ and $EX_{11}^4<\infty$. It is showed that the…

Given two sets of positive integers $A$ and $B$, let $AB := \{ab : a \in A,\, b \in B\}$ be their product set and put $A^k := A \cdots A$ ($k$ times $A$) for any positive integer $k$. Moreover, for every positive integer $n$ and every…

Let $O$ be chosen uniformly at random from the group of $(N+L) \times (N+L)$ orthogonal matrices. Denote by $\tilde{O}$ the upper-left $N \times N$ corner of $O$, which we refer to as a truncation of $O$. In this paper we prove two…

Large H-selfadjoint random matrices are considered. The matrix $H$ is assumed to have one negative eigenvalue, hence the matrix in question has precisely one eigenvalue of nonpositive type. It is showed that this eigenvalue converges in…
