In this paper, we study the smallest non-zero eigenvalue of the sample covariance matrices $\mathcal{S}(Y)=YY^*$, where $Y=(y_{ij})$ is an $M\times N$ matrix with iid mean $0$ variance $N^{-1}$ entries. We prove a phase transition for its…

We study the statistics of the largest eigenvalue lambda_max of N x N random matrices with unit variance, but power-law distributed entries, P(M_{ij})~ |M_{ij}|^{-1-mu}. When mu > 4, lambda_max converges to 2 with Tracy-Widom fluctuations…

We consider the ensemble of adjacency matrices of Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graphs, that is, graphs on $N$ vertices where every edge is chosen independently and with probability $p\equiv p(N)$. We rescale the matrix so that its bulk…

Wishart random matrices with a sparse or diluted structure are ubiquitous in the processing of large datasets, with applications in physics, biology and economy. In this work we develop a theory for the eigenvalue fluctuations of diluted…

Large deviations for fat tailed distributions, i.e. those that decay slower than exponential, are not only relatively likely, but they also occur in a rather peculiar way where a finite fraction of the whole sample deviation is concentrated…
