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…

In this paper, we study the effect of sparsity on the appearance of outliers in the semi-circular law. Let $(W_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of random symmetric matrices such that each $W_n$ is $n\times n$ with i.i.d entries above and on…

One of the great miracles of random matrix theory is that, in the $N \to \infty$ limit, many otherwise intractable matrix problems with horrendously complicated finite-$N$ expressions admit remarkably simple and elegant asymptotic…

We consider random hermitian matrices in which distant above-diagonal entries are independent but nearby entries may be correlated. We find the limit of the empirical distribution of eigenvalues by combinatorial methods. We also prove that…

We discuss the limiting spectral density of real symmetric random matrices. Other than in standard random matrix theory the upper diagonal entries are not assumed to be independent, but we will fill them with the entries of a stochastic…

Let $ A_n $ be an $n \times n$ random matrix with i.i.d Bernoulli($p$) entries. For a fixed positive integer $\beta$, suppose $p$ satisfies $$ \frac{ \log(n) }{ n } \le p \le c_\beta $$ where $c_\beta \in ( 0, 1/2 )$ is a…

We study the spectral measure of large Euclidean random matrices. The entries of these matrices are determined by the relative position of $n$ random points in a compact set $\Omega_n$ of $\R^d$. Under various assumptions we establish the…

We are concerned with the behavior of the eigenvalues of renormalized sample covariance matrices of the form C_n=\sqrt{\frac{n}{p}}\left(\frac{1}{n}A_{p}^{1/2}X_{n}B_{n}X_{n}^{*}A_{p}^{1/2}-\frac{1}{n}\tr(B_{n})A_{p}\right) as $p,n\to…

We consider n by n real matrices whose entries are non-degenerate random variables that are independent but non necessarily identically distributed, and show that the probability that such a matrix is singular is O(1/sqrt{n}). The purpose…
