Let $P_n$ be the $n$-step right product $A_1\cdots A_n$, where $A_1,A_2,\dots$ is a given infinite sequence of $d\times d$ matrices with nonnegative entries. In a wide range of situations, the normalized matrix product $P_n/{\Vert…

We would desire to have done the calculations of this paper in the measure on nxn matrices that weights uniformly all 0-1 matrices with row and column sum equal to r, other matrices given weight zero. Instead we work with all matrices that…

Azuma's inequality is a tool for proving concentration bounds on random variables. The inequality can be thought of as a natural generalization of additive Chernoff bounds. On the other hand, the analogous generalization of multiplicative…

For each $n$, let $A_n=(\sigma_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ deterministic matrix and let $X_n=(X_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. centered entries of unit variance. In the companion article Cook et al., we considered the…

We consider the problem of convergence to zero of matrix products $A_{n}B_{n}\cdots A_{1}B_{1}$ with factors from two sets of matrices, $A_{i}\in\mathscr{A}$ and $B_{i}\in\mathscr{B}$, due to a suitable choice of matrices $\{B_{i}\}$. It is…

For fixed $m>1$, we consider $m$ independent $n \times n$ non-Hermitian random matrices $X_1, ..., X_m$ with i.i.d. centered entries with a finite $(2+\eta)$-th moment, $ \eta>0.$ As $n$ tends to infinity, we show that the empirical…
