In this paper, we derive new relative perturbation bounds for eigenvectors and eigenvalues for regular quadratic eigenvalue problems of the form $\lambda^2 M x + \lambda C x + K x = 0$, where $M$ and $K$ are nonsingular Hermitian matrices…

The factorization norms of the lower-triangular all-ones $n \times n$ matrix, $\gamma_2(M_{count})$ and $\gamma_{F}(M_{count})$, play a central role in differential privacy as they are used to give theoretical justification of the accuracy…

We consider large complex random sample covariance matrices obtained from "spiked populations", that is when the true covariance matrix is diagonal with all but finitely many eigenvalues equal to one. We investigate the limiting behavior of…

Differentially private (DP) release of multidimensional statistics typically considers an aggregate sensitivity, e.g. the vector norm of a high-dimensional vector. However, different dimensions of that vector might have widely different…

Approximating significance scans of searches for new particles in high-energy physics experiments as Gaussian fields is a well-established way to estimate the trials factors required to quantify global significances. We propose a novel,…

Individual privacy accounting enables bounding differential privacy (DP) loss individually for each participant involved in the analysis. This can be informative as often the individual privacy losses are considerably smaller than those…

We study the problem of approximating the eigenspectrum of a symmetric matrix $\mathbf A \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ with bounded entries (i.e., $\|\mathbf A\|_{\infty} \leq 1$). We present a simple sublinear time algorithm that…

We consider a class of sparse random matrices which includes the adjacency matrix of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathcal{G}(N,p)$. We show that if $N^{\varepsilon} \leq Np \leq N^{1/3-\varepsilon}$ then all nontrivial eigenvalues away…
