Compressed sensing was proposed by E. J. Cand\'es, J. Romberg, T. Tao, and D. Donoho for efficient sampling of sparse signals in 2006 and has vast applications in signal processing. The expicit restricted isometry property (RIP) measurement…

For a large class of random matrices $A$ with i.i.d. entries we show that the $\ell_1$-quotient property holds with probability exponentially close to 1. In contrast to previous results, our analysis does not require concentration of the…

Consider an m by N matrix Phi with the Restricted Isometry Property of order k and level delta, that is, the norm of any k-sparse vector in R^N is preserved to within a multiplicative factor of 1 +- delta under application of Phi. We show…

In the Compressed Sensing community, it is well known that given a matrix $X \in \mathbb R^{n\times p}$ with $\ell_2$ normalized columns, the Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) implies the Null Space Property (NSP). It is also well known…

Let $\a$ be a real-valued random variable of mean zero and variance 1. Let $M_n(\a)$ denote the $n \times n$ random matrix whose entries are iid copies of $\a$ and $\sigma_n(M_n(\a))$ denote the least singular value of $M_n(\a)$.…

Compressed sensing (CS) is a signal acquisition paradigm to simultaneously acquire and reduce dimension of signals that admit sparse representations. This is achieved by collecting linear, non-adaptive measurements of a signal, which can be…

We investigate small deviation properties of Gaussian random fields in the space $L_q(\R^N,\mu)$ where $\mu$ is an arbitrary finite compactly supported Borel measure. Of special interest are hereby "thin" measures $\mu$, i.e., those which…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\text{GL}_d(\mathbb R)$ and denote by $S_n:= g_n \cdots g_1$ the associated random matrix product, where $g_j$'s are i.i.d.'s with law $\mu$. We study statistical properties of random variables of the…

The Restricted Isometry Constants (RIC) of a matrix $A$ measures how close to an isometry is the action of $A$ on vectors with few nonzero entries, measured in the $\ell^2$ norm. Specifically, the upper and lower RIC of a matrix $A$ of size…

A matrix $A$ is said to have the $\ell_p$-Restricted Isometry Property ($\ell_p$-RIP) if for all vectors $x$ of up to some sparsity $k$, $\|{Ax}\|_p$ is roughly proportional to $\|{x}\|_p$. We study this property for $m \times n$ matrices…

The Restricted Isometry Property (RIP) introduced by Cand\'es and Tao is a fundamental property in compressed sensing theory. It says that if a sampling matrix satisfies the RIP of certain order proportional to the sparsity of the signal,…

The null space property (NSP) and the restricted isometry property (RIP) are two properties which have received considerable attention in the compressed sensing literature. As the name suggests, NSP is a property that depends solely on the…

There are several ways to measure the compressibility of a random measure; they include general approaches such as using the rate-distortion curve, as well as more specific notions, such as the Renyi information dimension (RID). The RID…

Random subspaces $X$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ of dimension proportional to $n$ are, with high probability, well-spread with respect to the $\ell_2$-norm. Namely, every nonzero $x \in X$ is "robustly non-sparse" in the following sense: $x$ is…

This note provides a basic description of subgaussianity, by defining $(\sigma, \rho)$-subgaussian random variables $X$ ($\sigma>0, \rho>0$) as those satisfying $\mathbb{E}(\exp(\lambda X))\leq \rho\exp(\frac{1}{2}\sigma^2\lambda^2)$ for…

We consider a matrix-valued Gaussian sequence model, that is, we observe a sequence of high-dimensional $M \times N$ matrices of heterogeneous Gaussian random variables $x_{ij,k}$ for $i \in\{1,...,M\}$, $j \in \{1,...,N\}$ and $k \in…
