For every $\tau\in\mathbb{R}$ and every integer $N$, let $\mathfrak{m}_N(\tau)$ be the minimum of the distance of $\tau$ from the sums $\sum_{n=1}^N s_n/n$, where $s_1, \ldots, s_n \in \{-1, +1\}$. We prove that $\mathfrak{m}_N(\tau) <…

We present a simple solution to a question posed by Candes, Romberg and Tao on the uniform uncertainty principle for Bernoulli random matrices. More precisely, we show that a rectangular k*n random subgaussian matrix (with k < n) has the…
In this paper, we prove that an $n\times n$ matrix $A$ with independent centered subgaussian entries satisfies \[ s_{n+1-l}(A) \le C_1t \frac{l}{\sqrt{n}} \] with probability at least $1-\exp(-C_2tl)$. This yields $s_{n-l}(A) \sim…

We extend to the matrix setting a recent result of Srivastava-Vershynin about estimating the covariance matrix of a random vector. The result can be in- terpreted as a quantified version of the law of large numbers for positive…
We study the universality of the eigenvalue statistics of the covariance matrices $\frac{1}{n}M^* M$ where $M$ is a large $p\times n$ matrix obeying condition $\bf{C1}$. In particular, as an application, we prove a variant of universality…
Let $\mathbf X$ be a random matrix whose pairs of entries $X_{jk}$ and $X_{kj}$ are correlated and vectors $ (X_{jk},X_{kj})$, for $1\le j<k\le n$, are mutually independent. Assume that the diagonal entries are independent from off-diagonal…

We establish a large deviation principle for the smallest eigenvalue of a random matrix model composed of the sum of a GOE matrix and a diagonal matrix with an outlier. Our result generalizes and unifies previously studied cases.
