Several problems in machine learning, statistics, and other fields rely on computing eigenvectors. For large scale problems, the computation of these eigenvectors is typically performed via iterative schemes such as subspace iteration or…
In testing of hypothesis the robustness of the tests is an important concern. Generally, the maximum likelihood based tests are most efficient under standard regularity conditions, but they are highly non-robust even under small deviations…

The extended Davis-Kahan theorem makes use of polynomial matrix transformations to produce bounds at least as tight as the standard Davis-Kahan theorem. The optimization problem of finding transformation parameters resulting in optimal…
The Wald test statistic has been shown to diverge (Dufour et al, 2013, 2017) under some conditions. This note links the divergence to eigenvalues of a polynomial matrix and establishes the divergence rate.
We prove the Central Limit Theorem for finite-dimensional vectors of linear eigenvalue statistics of submatrices of Wigner random matrices under the assumption that test functions are sufficiently smooth. We connect the asymptotic…
So-called linear rank statistics provide a means for distribution-free (even in finite samples), yet highly flexible, two-sample testing in the setting of univariate random variables. Their flexibility derives from a choice of weights that…
In this paper we consider some hypothesis tests within a family of Wishart distributions, where both the sample space and the parameter space are symmetric cones. For such testing problems, we first derive the joint density of the ordered…
A problem that is frequently encountered in a variety of mathematical contexts, is to find the common invariant subspaces of a single, or set of matrices. A new method is proposed that gives a definitive answer to this problem. The key idea…
We introduce a unified method for study of 2-dimensional invariant subspaces of matrices and their corresponding super-eigenvalues. As a novel application to non-commutative algebra, we present a connection between the eigenvalues of…
We consider eigenvalue condition numbers and backward errors for a class of symmetric nonlinear eigenvalue problems with eigenvector nonlinearities. For both of these quantities, we derive explicit and computable expressions that can be…
The behavior of the power function of autocorrelation tests such as the Durbin-Watson test in time series regressions or the Cliff-Ord test in spatial regression models has been intensively studied in the literature. When the correlation…
Eigenvalue interlacing is a useful tool in linear algebra and spectral analysis. In its simplest form, the interlacing inequality states that a rank-one positive perturbation shifts each eigenvalue up, but not further than the next…
We compute analytically the joint probability density of eigenvalues and the level spacing statistics for an ensemble of random matrices with interesting features. It is invariant under the standard symmetry groups (orthogonal and unitary)…
It has become an increasingly common practice for scientists in modern science and engineering to collect samples of multiple network data in which a network serves as a basic data object. The increasing prevalence of multiple network data…
We study random points on the real line generated by the eigenvalues in unitary invariant random matrix ensembles or by more general repulsive particle systems. As the number of points tends to infinity, we prove convergence of the…
Improving upon results of Rudelson and Vershynin, we establish delocalization bounds for eigenvectors of independent-entry random matrices. In particular, we show that with high probability every eigenvector is delocalized, meaning any…
We analyze statistics for eigenvector entries of heavy-tailed random symmetric matrices (also called L\'{e}vy matrices) whose associated eigenvalues are sufficiently small. We show that the limiting law of any such entry is non-Gaussian,…
Since the two seminal papers by Fisher (1915, 1921) were published, the test under a fixed value correlation coefficient null hypothesis for the bivariate normal distribution constitutes an important statistical problem. In the framework of…
Graph (or network) is a mathematical structure that has been widely used to model relational data. As real-world systems get more complex, multilayer (or multiple) networks are employed to represent diverse patterns of relationships among…
