A well-known conjecture states that a random symmetric $n \times n$ matrix with entries in $\{-1,1\}$ is singular with probability $\Theta\big( n^2 2^{-n} \big)$. In this paper we prove that the probability of this event is at most…
We show that for an $n\times n$ random symmetric matrix $A_n$, whose entries on and above the diagonal are independent copies of a sub-Gaussian random variable $\xi$ with mean $0$ and variance $1$, \[\mathbb{P}[s_n(A_n) \le…
In order to have a better understanding of finite random matrices with non-Gaussian entries, we study the $1/N$ expansion of local eigenvalue statistics in both the bulk and at the hard edge of the spectrum of random matrices. This gives…
Let $A$ be an $N\times n$ random matrix whose entries are coordinates of an isotropic log-concave random vector in $\mathbb{R}^{Nn}$. We prove sharp lower tail estimates for the smallest singular value of $A$ in the following cases: (1)…
We prove an estimate on the smallest singular value of a multiplicatively and additively deformed random rectangular matrix. Suppose $n\le N \le M \le \Lambda N$ for some constant $\Lambda \ge 1$. Let $X$ be an $M\times n$ random matrix…
We study the Matrix Multiplication Verification Problem (MMV) where the goal is, given three $n \times n$ matrices $A$, $B$, and $C$ as input, to decide whether $AB = C$. A classic randomized algorithm by Freivalds (MFCS, 1979) solves MMV…
Let $M_n$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. Bernoulli(p) entries. We show that there is a universal constant $C\geq 1$ such that, whenever $p$ and $n$ satisfy $C\log n/n\leq p\leq C^{-1}$, \begin{align*} {\mathbb…
Motivated by the Koml\'os conjecture in combinatorial discrepancy, we study the discrepancy of random matrices with $m$ rows and $n$ independent columns drawn from a bounded lattice random variable. It is known that for $n$ tending to…
We consider a class of sparse random matrices of the form $A_n =(\xi_{i,j}\delta_{i,j})_{i,j=1}^n$, where $\{\xi_{i,j}\}$ are i.i.d.~centered random variables, and $\{\delta_{i,j}\}$ are i.i.d.~Bernoulli random variables taking value $1$…
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 study invariant random matrix ensembles \begin{equation*} \mathbb{P}_n(d M)=Z_n^{-1}\exp(-n\,tr(V(M)))\,d M \end{equation*} defined on complex Hermitian matrices $M$ of size $n\times n$, where $V$ is real analytic such that the…
We study invertibility of matrices of the form $D+R$ where $D$ is an arbitrary symmetric deterministic matrix, and $R$ is a symmetric random matrix whose independent entries have continuous distributions with bounded densities. We show that…
Let $M_{n}$ denote a random symmetric $n\times n$ matrix, whose entries on and above the diagonal are i.i.d. Rademacher random variables (taking values $\pm 1$ with probability $1/2$ each). Resolving a conjecture of Vu, we prove that the…
Let $A \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times n}$ ($N \geq n$) be a random matrix with with independent entries that have mean 0 variance 1 and bounded $2+\beta$ moment. We show that the smallest singular value $\sigma_n(A)$ satisfies \[ \Pr…
We consider the singular vectors of any $m \times n$ submatrix of a rectangular $M \times N$ Gaussian matrix and study their asymptotic overlaps with those of the full matrix, in the macroscopic regime where $N \,/\, M\,$, $m \,/\, M$ as…
Let $A_n$ be a random symmetric matrix with Bernoulli $\{\pm 1\}$ entries. For any $\kappa>0$ and two real numbers $\lambda_1,\lambda_2$ with a separation $|\lambda_1-\lambda_2|\geq \kappa n^{1/2}$ and both lying in the bulk…
For a fixed $n\ge2$, consider an $n\times n$ matrix $M$ whose entries are random integers bounded by $k$ in absolute value. In this paper, we examine the probability that $M$ is singular (hence has eigenvalue 0), and the probability that…
We derive a lower bound on the smallest singular value of a random $d$-regular matrix, that is, the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular directed graph. More precisely, let $C_1<d< c_1 n/\log^2 n$ and let $\mathcal{M}_{n,d}$ be the set…

We study the singularity probability of random integer matrices. Concretely, the probability that a random $n \times n$ matrix, with integer entries chosen uniformly from $\{-m,\ldots,m\}$, is singular. This problem has been well studied in…
