Let $X_1,X_2, \ldots $ be a sequence of $i.i.d$ real (complex) $d \times d $ invertible random matrices with common distribution $\mu$ and $\sigma_1(n), \sigma_2(n), \ldots , \sigma_d(n)$ be the singular values, $\lambda_1(n), \lambda_2(n),…
We use the well-known isomorphism between operator algebras and function spaces equipped with a star product to study the asymptotic properties of certain matrix sequences in which the matrix dimension $D$ tends to infinity. Our approach is…
Analyzing concentration of large random matrices is a common task in a wide variety of fields. Given independent random variables, many tools are available to analyze random matrices whose entries are linear in the variables, e.g. the…
Let $\{V_{i,j}; (i,j)\in\N^2\}$ be a two-dimensional array of i.i.d.\ random variables. The limit laws of the sum of independent random products $$ Z_n=\sum_{i=1}^{N_n} \prod_{j=1}^{n} e^{V_{i,j}} $$ as $n,N_n\to\infty$ have been…
For a random variable $X$ define $Q(X) = \sup_{x \in \mathbb{R}} \mathbb{P}(X=x)$. Let $X_1, \dots, X_n$ be independent integer random variables. Suppose $Q(X_i) \le \alpha_i \in (0,1]$ for each $i \in \{1, \dots, n\}$. Ju\v{s}kevi\v{c}ius…
Initially motivated by the study of the non-asymptotic properties of non-parametric tests based on permutation methods, concentration inequalities for uniformly permuted sums have been largely studied in the literature. Recently, Delyon et…
In this paper we review recently established results on the asymptotic behaviour of the trigonometric product $P_n(\alpha) = \prod_{r=1}^n |2\sin \pi r \alpha|$ as $n\to \infty$. We focus on irrationals $\alpha$ whose continued fraction…
Let $(g_{n})_{n\geq 1}$ be a sequence of independent identically distributed $d\times d$ real random matrices with Lyapunov exponent $\gamma$. For any starting point $x$ on the unit sphere in $\mathbb R^d$, we deal with the norm $ | G_n x |…
In the present paper we study the asymptotic behavior of trigonometric products of the form $\prod_{k=1}^N 2 \sin(\pi x_k)$ for $N \to \infty$, where the numbers $\omega=(x_k)_{k=1}^N$ are evenly distributed in the unit interval $[0,1]$.…
We show that, under mild assumptions, the spectrum of a sum of independent random matrices is close to that of the Gaussian random matrix whose entries have the same mean and covariance. This nonasymptotic universality principle yields…
We prove the following one-sided product-mixing theorem for the alternating group: Given subsets $X,Y,Z \subset A_n$ of densities $\alpha,\beta,\gamma$ satisfying $\min(\alpha\beta,\alpha\gamma,\beta\gamma)\gg n^{-1}(\log n)^7$, there are…
We prove concentration results for $\ell_p^n$ operator norms of rectangular random matrices and eigenvalues of self-adjoint random matrices. The random matrices we consider have bounded entries which are independent, up to a possible…
Let $S_n=\frac{1}{n}X_nX_n^*$ where $X_n=\{X_{ij}\}$ is a $p\times n$ matrix with i.i.d. complex standardized entries having finite fourth moments. Let $Y_n(\mathbf {t}_1,\mathbf {t}_2,\sigma)=\sqrt{p}({\mathbf {x}}_n(\mathbf…

Let $X_N$ be an $N\ts N$ random symmetric matrix with independent equidistributed entries. If the law $P$ of the entries has a finite second moment, it was shown by Wigner \cite{wigner} that the empirical distribution of the eigenvalues of…
Given an i.i.d. sequence $\{A_n(\omega)\}_{n\ge 1}$ of invertible matrices and a random matrix $B(\omega)$, we consider the random matrix sequences inductively defined by $S_n(\omega) = A_n(\omega)S_{n-1}(\omega)$ and $T_n(\omega) =…
We consider the question of the boundedness 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 an appropriate choice of matrices $\{B_{i}\}$. It…
We consider the asymmetric random average process which is a one-dimensional stochastic lattice model with nearest neighbour interaction but continuous and unbounded state variables. First, the explicit functional representations, so-called…
We consider a random variable $X$ that takes values in a (possibly infinite-dimensional) topological vector space $\mathcal{X}$. We show that, with respect to an appropriate "normal distance" on $\mathcal{X}$, concentration inequalities for…
