We prove that with high probability, every eigenvector of a random matrix is delocalized in the sense that any subset of its coordinates carries a non-negligible portion of its $\ell_2$ norm. Our results pertain to a wide class of random…
Improving upon results of Rudelson and Vershynin, we establish delocalization bounds for eigenvectors of independent-entry random matrices. In particular, we show that with high probability every eigenvector is delocalized, meaning any…

We analyse the eigenvectors of the adjacency matrix of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph on $N$ vertices with edge probability $\frac{d}{N}$. We determine the full region of delocalization by determining the critical values of $\frac{d}{\log N}$…
We investigate delocalization phenomena for eigenvectors of real random matrices that are invariant by orthogonal transformations. A specific phenomenon with these ensembles is that an eigenvector is typically more localized when its…
We prove delocalization of eigenvectors of vertex-transitive graphs via elementary estimates of the spectral projector. We recover in this way known results which were formerly proved using representation theory. Similar techniques show…

We analyse the eigenvectors of the adjacency matrix of a critical Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathbb G(N,d/N)$, where $d$ is of order $\log N$. We show that its spectrum splits into two phases: a delocalized phase in the middle of the…
We propose a technique for calculating and understanding the eigenvalue distribution of sums of random matrices from the known distribution of the summands. The exact problem is formidably hard. One extreme approximation to the true density…
We consider a general class of $n\times n$ random band matrices with bandwidth $W$. When $W^2\ll n$, we prove that with high probability the eigenvectors of such matrices are localized and decay exponentially at the sharp scale $W^2$.…
