Let $M$ be an $n\times n$ random i.i.d. matrix. This paper studies the deviation inequality of $s_{n-k+1}(M)$, the $k$-th smallest singular value of $M$. In particular, when the entries of $M$ are subgaussian, we show that for any…

We prove that for all values of the edge probability p(n) the largest eigenvalue of a random graph G(n,p) satisfies almost surely: \lambda_1(G)=(1+o(1))max{\sqrt{\Delta},np}, where \Delta is a maximal degree of G, and the o(1) term tends to…
We obtain lower tail estimates for the smallest singular value of random matrices with independent but non-identically distributed entries. Specifically, we consider $n\times n$ matrices with complex entries of the form \[ M = A\circ X + B…
We consider the ensemble of $N\times N$ ($N\gg 1$) symmetric random matrices with the bimodal independent distribution of matrix elements: each element could be either "1" with the probability $p$, or "0" otherwise. We pay attention to the…
Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with independent, identically distributed mean 0, variance 1 subgaussian entries. We prove that $$ \mathbb{P}(A\text{ has distinct singular values})\geq 1-e^{-cn} $$ for some $c>0$, confirming a…
Consider a random $n\times n$ zero-one matrix with "density" $p$, sampled according to one of the following two models: either every entry is independently taken to be one with probability $p$ (the "Bernoulli" model), or each row is…
We compute exact asymptotic results for the probability of the occurrence of large deviations of the largest (smallest) eigenvalue of random matrices belonging to the Gaussian orthogonal, unitary and symplectic ensembles. In particular, we…
In this paper, we investigate the invertibility of sparse symmetric matrices. We show that for an $n\times n$ sparse symmetric random matrix $A$ with $A_{ij} = \delta_{ij} \xi_{ij}$ is invertible with high probability. Here, $\delta_{ij}$s,…

We study sparse principal components analysis in the high-dimensional setting, where $p$ (the number of variables) can be much larger than $n$ (the number of observations). We prove optimal, non-asymptotic lower and upper bounds on the…
Let $\a$ be a real-valued random variable of mean zero and variance 1. Let $M_n(\a)$ denote the $n \times n$ random matrix whose entries are iid copies of $\a$ and $\sigma_n(M_n(\a))$ denote the least singular value of $M_n(\a)$.…
We derive a lower bound on the smallest singular value of a random $d$-regular matrix, that is, the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular directed graph. More precisely, let $C_1<d< c_1 n/\log^2 n$ and let $\mathcal{M}_{n,d}$ be the set…
