The scaled standard Wigner matrix (symmetric with mean zero, variance one i.i.d. entries), and its limiting eigenvalue distribution, namely the semi-circular distribution, has attracted much attention. The $2k$th moment of the limit equals…
We prove the following theorem. Let $X$ be a discrete field, $\xi$ and $\eta$ be independent identically distributed random variables with values in $X$ and distribution $\mu$. The random variables $S=\xi+\eta$ and $D=(\xi-\eta)^2$ are…
We consider large-dimensional Hermitian or symmetric random matrices of the form $W=M+\vartheta V$ where $M$ is a Wigner matrix and $V$ is a real diagonal matrix whose entries are independent of $M$. For a large class of diagonal matrices…

We introduce families of jointly symmetric, binary distributions that are generated over directed star graphs whose nodes represent variables and whose edges indicate positive dependences. The families are parametrized in terms of a single…
We generalize the characterization theorem going back to Mercer and Young, which states that a symmetric and continuous kernel is positive definite if and only if it is integrally positive definite, to matrix-valued kernels on separable…

The model of heavy Wigner matrices generalizes the classical ensemble of Wigner matrices: the sub-diagonal entries are independent, identically distributed along to and out of the diagonal, and the moments its entries are of order 1/N,…
We show that, for two non-trivial random variables X and Y under a sublinear expectation space, if X is independent from Y and Y is independent from X, then X and Y must be maximally distributed.
Let $X, Y$ be two independent identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables taking values from a separable Banach space $(\mathcal{X}, \|\cdot\|)$. Given two measurable subsets $F, K\subseteq\cal{X}$, we established distribution free…
Complex Hermitian random matrices with a unitary symmetry can be distinguished by a weight function. When this is even, it is a known result that the distribution of the singular values can be decomposed as the superposition of two…
