We obtain a recurrence relation in $d$ for the average singular value $% \alpha (d)$ of a complex valued $d\times d$\ matrix $\frac{1}{\sqrt{d}}X$ with random i.i.d., N( 0,1) entries, and use it to show that $\alpha (d)$ decreases…

Let $M_n$ denote a random symmetric $n$ by $n$ matrix, whose upper diagonal entries are iid Bernoulli random variables (which take value -1 and 1 with probability 1/2). Improving the earlier result by Costello, Tao and Vu, we show that…

We consider recovery of low-rank matrices from noisy data by hard thresholding of singular values, where singular values below a prescribed threshold $\lambda$ are set to 0. We study the asymptotic MSE in a framework where the matrix size…

Many multivariate data analysis techniques for an $m\times n$ matrix $\m Y$ are related to the model $\m Y = \m M +\m E$, where $\m Y$ is an $m\times n$ matrix of full rank and $\m M$ is an unobserved mean matrix of rank $K< (m\wedge n)$.…

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)…
