In this paper we characterize all distributional limits of the random quadratic form $T_n =\sum_{1\le u< v\le n} a_{u, v} X_u X_v$, where $((a_{u, v}))_{1\le u,v\le n}$ is a $\{0, 1\}$-valued symmetric matrix with zeros on the diagonal and…

In this note, we consider a sample covariance matrix of the form $$M_{n}=\sum_{\alpha=1}^m \tau_\alpha {\mathbf{y}}_{\alpha}^{(1)} \otimes {\mathbf{y}}_{\alpha}^{(2)}({\mathbf{y}}_{\alpha}^{(1)} \otimes {\mathbf{y}}_{\alpha}^{(2)})^T,$$…

Linear statistics of eigenvalues in many familiar classes of random matrices are known to obey gaussian central limit theorems. The proofs of such results are usually rather difficult, involving hard computations specific to the model in…

Under certain conditions on k we calculate the limit distribution of the k:th largest eigenvalue, x_k, of the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE). More specifically, if n is the dimension of a random matrix from the GUE and k is such that both…

We consider the spectrum of the Sample Covariance matrix $\mathbf{A}_N:= \frac{\mathbf{X}_N \mathbf{X}_N^*}{N}, $ where $\mathbf{X}_N$ is the $P\times N$ matrix with i.i.d. half-heavy tailed entries and $\frac{P}{N}\to y>0$ (the entries of…

We study linear spectral statistics of high dimensional sample covariance matrices in a regime where the empirical spectral distribution remains governed by the classical sample covariance law but the fluctuation theory is nonclassical. Our…

This paper is aimed at deriving the universality of the largest eigenvalue of a class of high-dimensional real or complex sample covariance matrices of the form $\mathcal{W}_N=\Sigma^{1/2}XX^*\Sigma ^{1/2}$. Here, $X=(x_{ij})_{M,N}$ is an…

The Keating-Snaith central limit theorem proves that $\Lambda_N(A)=\log\det(I-A)$, for randomly drawn $A\in \operatorname{U}(N)$, suitably normalised, tends to a complex Gaussian random variable in the large $N$ limit. The deviations of the…

Invariant ensemble, which are characterised by the joint distribution of eigenvalues $P(\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_N)$, play a central role in random matrix theory. We consider the truncated linear statistics $L_K = \sum_{n=1}^K f(\lambda_n)$…
