We consider the sum of two large Hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ with a Haar unitary conjugation bringing them into a general relative position. We prove that the eigenvalue density on the scale slightly above the local eigenvalue spacing is…

Sample correlation matrices are employed ubiquitously in statistics. However, quite surprisingly, little is known about their asymptotic spectral properties for high-dimensional data, particularly beyond the case of "null models" for which…

We consider random matrix ensembles on the set of Hermitian matrices that are heavy tailed, in particular not all moments exist, and that are invariant under the conjugate action of the unitary group. The latter property entails that the…

We analyze when an arbitrary matrix pencil is equivalent to a dissipative Hamiltonian pencil and show that this heavily restricts the spectral properties. In order to relax the spectral properties, we introduce matrix pencils with…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the spectra of matrices of the form $S_n = \frac{1}{n}XX^*$ where $X =\sum_{r=1}^K X_r$, where $X_r = A_r^\frac{1}{2}Z_rB_r^\frac{1}{2}$, $K \in \mathbb{N}$ and $A_r,B_r$ are sequences of positive…

We consider an ensemble of large non-Hermitian random matrices of the form $\hat{H}+i\hat{A}_s$, where $\hat{H}$ and $\hat{A}_s$ are Hermitian statistically independent random $N\times N$ matrices. We demonstrate the existence of a new…

This paper studies the asymptotic behavior of eigenvalues of random abelian G-circulant matrices, that is, matrices whose structure is related to a finite abelian group G in a way that naturally generalizes the relationship between…

We consider the asymptotic behavior as $n\to\infty$ of the spectra of random matrices of the form \[\frac{1}{\sqrt{n-1}}\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}Z_{nk}\rho_n ((k,k+1)),\] where for each $n$ the random variables $Z_{nk}$ are i.i.d. standard Gaussian…

It is well known from the Perron-Frobenius theory that the spectral gap of a positive square matrix is positive. In this paper, we give a more quantitative characterization of the spectral gap. More specifically, using a complex extension…

The paper discusses progress in understanding statistical properties of complex eigenvalues (and corresponding eigenvectors) of weakly non-unitary and non-Hermitian random matrices. Ensembles of this type emerge in various physical…

We provide estimates for the spectral radii of an $n\times n$ sparse non-Hermitian random matrix $Z$ with general entries in the regime $p=d/n$ where $0<d<1$ is fixed. Utilizing the structural results of ({\L}uczak, '90), we show that the…

We establish bounds on the spectral radii for a large class of sparse random matrices, which includes the adjacency matrices of inhomogeneous Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs. Our error bounds are sharp for a large class of sparse random matrices.…

The properties of the first (largest) eigenvalue and its eigenvector (first eigenvector) are investigated for large sparse random symmetric matrices that are characterized by bimodal degree distributions. In principle, one should be able to…

Spectral properties of Toeplitz operators and their finite truncations have long been central in operator theory. In the finite dimensional, non-normal setting, the spectrum is notoriously unstable under perturbations. Random perturbations…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues of spiked perturbations of Wigner matrices when the dimension goes to infinity. The entries of the Hermitian Wigner matrix have a distribution which is symmetric and satisfies a…

Consider an $N\times N$ hermitian random matrix with independent entries, not necessarily Gaussian, a so called Wigner matrix. It has been conjectured that the local spacing distribution, i.e. the distribution of the distance between…

We study the spectral norm of N-dimensional hermitian random matrices whose entries are zero outside of the band of the width b along the principal diagonal. Inside this band the elements are given by gaussian centered jointly independent…

We study the eigenvalue spectrum of a large real antisymmetric random matrix $J_{ij}$. Using a fermionic approach and replica trick, we obtain a semicircular spectrum of eigenvalues when the mean value of each matrix element is zero, and in…

We consider perturbations of a large Jordan matrix, either random and small in norm or of small rank. In both cases we show that most of the eigenvalues of the perturbed matrix are very close to a circle with centre at the origin. In the…

We study asymptotic spectral properties of the generalized Hilbert $L$-matrix \[ L_{n}(\nu)=\left(\frac{1}{\max(i,j)+\nu}\right)_{i,j=0}^{n-1}, \] for large order $n$. First, for general $\nu\neq0,-1,-2,\dots$, we deduce the asymptotic…
