We consider Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graphs $G(n,p_n)$ with large constant expected degree $\lambda$ and $p_n=\lambda/n$. Bordenave and Lelarge (2010) showed that the infinite-volume limit, in the Benjamini-Schramm topology, is a Galton-Watson…
Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with independent rows $R_1(A),\dots,R_n(A)$, and assume that for any $i\leq n$ and any three-dimensional linear subspace $F\subset {\mathbb R}^n$ the orthogonal projection of $R_i(A)$ onto $F$ has…

We obtain a tail bound for the least non-zero singular value of $A-z$ when $A$ is a random matrix and $z$ is an eigenvalue of $A$ in a neighbourhood of a given point $z_0$ in the bulk of the spectrum. The argument relies on a resolvent…
We consider $N\times N$ symmetric or hermitian random matrices with independent, identically distributed entries where the probability distribution for each matrix element is given by a measure $\nu$ with a subexponential decay. We prove…
The empirical eigenvalue distribution of the elliptic random matrix ensemble tends to the uniform measure on an ellipse in the complex plane as its dimension tends to infinity. We show this convergence on all mesoscopic scales slightly…
We consider Hermitian and symmetric random band matrices $H = (h_{xy})$ in $d \geq 1$ dimensions. The matrix entries $h_{xy}$, indexed by $x,y \in (\bZ/L\bZ)^d$, are independent, centred random variables with variances $s_{xy} = \E…
Consider a real diagonal deterministic matrix $X_n$ of size $n$ with spectral measure converging to a compactly supported probability measure. We perturb this matrix by adding a random finite rank matrix, with delocalized eigenvectors. We…
Eigenvector localization refers to the situation when most of the components of an eigenvector are zero or near-zero. This phenomenon has been observed on eigenvectors associated with extremal eigenvalues, and in many of those cases it can…
We consider the bulk eigenvalue statistics of Laplacian matrices of large Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs in the regime $p \geq N^{\delta}/N$ for any fixed $\delta >0$. We prove a local law down to the optimal scale $\eta \gtrsim N^{-1}$…
We give a delocalization estimate for eigenfunctions of the discrete Laplacian on large $d+1$-regular graphs, showing that any subset of the graph supporting $\epsilon$ of the $L^2$ mass of an eigenfunction must be large. For graphs…

We show that for an Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi graph on $N$ vertices with expected degree $d$ satisfying $\log^{-1/9}N\leq d\leq \log^{1/40}N$, the largest eigenvalues can be precisely determined by small neighborhoods around vertices of close to…
In the case of graph partitioning, the emergence of localized eigenvectors can cause the standard spectral method to fail. To overcome this problem, the spectral method using a non-backtracking matrix was proposed. Based on numerical…
