We study the empirical spectral distribution (ESD) of symmetric random matrices with ergodic entries on the diagonals. We observe that for entries with correlations that decay to 0, when the distance of the diagonal entries becomes large…

Let $X_N$ be a $N \times N$ real Wishart random matrix with aspect ratio $M/N$. The limit eigenvalue distribution of $X_N$ is the Marchenko-Pastur law with parameter $c = \lim_N M/N$. The limit moments $\{m_n\}_n$ are given by $m_n =…

Permanents of random matrices with independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) entries have extensively studied in literature and convergence and concentration properties are known under varying assumptions on the distributions. In…

We establish local laws for sample covariance matrices $K = N^{-1}\sum_{i=1}^N \g_i\g_i^*$ where the random vectors $\g_1, \ldots, \g_N \in \R^n$ are independent with common covariance $\Sigma$. Previous work has largely focused on the…

This paper introduces the separable covariance mixture model, which assumes a data-matrix $Y$ to be of the form $$ \sum\limits_{r=1}^R A_r X B_r $$ for one random $(d \times n)$-matrix $X$ with independent centered variance-one entries, and…

Let $(\varepsilon_{t})_{t>0}$ be a sequence of independent real random vectors of $p$-dimension and let $X_T= \sum_{t=s+1}^{s+T}\varepsilon_t\varepsilon^T_{t-s}/T$ be the lag-$s$ ($s$ is a fixed positive integer) auto-covariance matrix of…

Real non-symmetric matrices may have either real or complex conjugate eigenvalues. These matrices can be seen to be pseudo-symmetric as $\eta M \eta^{-1} = M^t$, where the metric $\eta$ could be secular (a constant matrix) or depending upon…

Let $A$ be a square random matrix of size $n$, with mean zero, independent but not identically distributed entries, with variance profile $S$. When entries are i.i.d. with unit variance, the spectral radius of $n^{-1/2}A$ converges to $1$…

Consider a square matrix with independent and identically distributed entries of zero mean and unit variance. It is well known that if the entries have a finite fourth moment, then, in high dimension, with high probability, the spectral…

In this short note, we extend the celebrated results of Tao and Vu, and Krishnapur on the universality of empirical spectral distributions to a wide class of inhomogeneous complex random matrices, by showing that a technical and…

We consider the problem of determining the limiting spectral distribution for random matrices whose row distributions are permitted to have limited dependence. We assume mild moment conditions and give an extension of the…

We derive the distribution of the eigenvalues of a large sample covariance matrix when the data is dependent in time. More precisely, the dependence for each variable $i=1,...,p$ is modelled as a linear process…

Suppose that $\mathbf X_n=(x_{jk})$ is $N\times n$ whose elements are independent real variables with mean zero, variance 1 and the fourth moment equal to three. The separable sample covariance matrix is defined as $\mathbf{B}_n =…

We extend the proof of the local semicircle law for generalized Wigner matrices given in [4] to the case when the matrix of variances has an eigenvalue $ -1 $. In particular, this result provides a short proof of the optimal local…

We analyze the spectral distribution of symmetric random matrices with correlated entries. While we assume that the diagonals of these random matrices are stochastically independent, the elements of the diagonals are taken to be correlated.…

The limiting distribution of eigenvalues of N x N random matrices has many applications. One of the most studied ensembles are real symmetric matrices with independent entries iidrv; the limiting rescaled spectral measure (LRSM)…

Let $X_1,..., X_N\in\R^n$ be independent centered random vectors with log-concave distribution and with the identity as covariance matrix. We show that with overwhelming probability at least $1 - 3 \exp(-c\sqrt{n}\r)$ one has $ \sup_{x\in…

Let $\mathbf S \in \mathbb R^{n \times n}$ satisfy $\|\mathbf 1-\mathbf S\|_2\le\epsilon n$, where $\mathbf 1$ is the all ones matrix and $\|\cdot\|_2$ is the spectral norm. It is well-known that there exists such an $\mathbf S$ with just…
