Under certain conditions, the largest eigenvalue of a sample covariance matrix undergoes a well-known phase transition when the sample size $n$ and data dimension $p$ diverge proportionally. In the subcritical regime, this eigenvalue has…
We introduce a new random matrix model called distance covariance matrix in this paper, whose normalized trace is equivalent to the distance covariance. We first derive a deterministic limit for the eigenvalue distribution of the distance…
Bandeira et al. (2017) show that the eigenvalues of the Kendall correlation matrix of $n$ i.i.d. random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^p$ are asymptotically distributed like $1/3 + (2/3)Y_q$, where $Y_q$ has a Mar\v{c}enko-Pastur law with parameter…
We show that the fluctuations of the largest eigenvalue of any generalized Wigner matrix $H$ converge to the Tracy-Widom laws at a rate nearly $O(N^{-1/3})$, as the matrix dimension $N$ tends to infinity. We allow the variances of the…
There has been an increasing interest in testing the equality of large Pearson's correlation matrices. However, in many applications it is more important to test the equality of large rank-based correlation matrices since they are more…
This paper studies the spectral behavior of large dimensional Chatterjee's rank correlation matrix when observations are independent draws from a high-dimensional random vector with independent continuous components. We show that the…
We study random matrices whose entries are obtained by applying consistent rank correlations, such as Hoeffding's $D$, pairwise to a high-dimensional random vector with mutually independent components. Prior work has shown that, in the…
The distributions of the largest and the smallest eigenvalues of a $p$-variate sample covariance matrix $S$ are of great importance in statistics. Focusing on the null case where $nS$ follows the standard Wishart distribution $W_p(I,n)$, we…
Let $Z$ be a random variable with values in a proper closed convex cone $C\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $A$ a random endomorphism of $C$ and $N$ a random integer. We assume that $Z$, $A$, $N$ are independent. Given $N$ independent copies…
After proper rescaling and under some technical assumptions, the smallest eigenvalue of a sample covariance matrix with aspect ratio bounded away from 1 converges to the Tracy--Widom distribution. This complements the results on the largest…
We consider the fluctuations of the largest eigenvalue of sparse random matrices, the class of random matrices that includes the normalized adjacency matrices of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $G(N, p)$. We show that the fluctuations of the…
We treat the problem of testing independence between m continuous variables when m can be larger than the available sample size n. We consider three types of test statistics that are constructed as sums or sums of squares of pairwise rank…
Let $X$ be a $p\times n$ independent identically distributed real Gaussian matrix with positive mean $\mu $ and variance $\sigma^2$ entries. The goal of this paper is to investigate the largest eigenvalue of the noncentral sample covariance…
We study the distribution of the largest eigenvalue in formal Hermitian one-matrix models at multicriticality, where the spectral density acquires an extra number of k-1 zeros at the edge. The distributions are directly expressed through…
We consider a multivariate linear response regression in which the number of responses and predictors is large and comparable with the number of observations, and the rank of the matrix of regression coefficients is assumed to be small. We…
We present detailed computations of the 'at least finite' terms (three dominant orders) of the free energy in a one-cut matrix model with a hard edge a, in beta-ensembles, with any polynomial potential. beta is a positive number, so not…
We define a class of random matrix ensembles that pertain to random looped polymers. Such random looped polymers are a possible model for bio-polymers such as chromatin in the cell nucleus. It is shown that the distribution of the largest…
We compute exactly the asymptotic distribution of scaled height in a (1+1)--dimensional anisotropic ballistic deposition model by mapping it to the Ulam problem of finding the longest nondecreasing subsequence in a random sequence of…
We study largest singular values of large random matrices, each with mean of a fixed rank $K$. Our main result is a limit theorem as the number of rows and columns approach infinity, while their ratio approaches a positive constant. It…
We analyse in a systematic way the occurrences of a remarkable structure in the theory of integrable probability that we call a ``max-independence structure'', when random variables are constructed as a maximum of a sequence of independent…
