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 study the a.s. sample path regularity of Gaussian processes. To this end we relate the path regularity directly to the theory of small deviations. In particular, we show that if the process is $n$-times differentiable then the…

We show that every matrix $A \in \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ is at least $\delta$$\|A\|$-close to a real matrix $A+E \in \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ whose eigenvectors have condition number at most $\tilde{O}_{n}(\delta^{-1})$. In fact, we prove…

The remarkable universality of the eigenvalue correlation functions is perhaps one of the most salient findings in random matrix theory. Particularly for short-range separations of the eigenvalues, the correlation functions have been shown…
For symmetric random matrices with correlated entries, which are functions of independent random variables, we show that the asymptotic behavior of the empirical eigenvalue distribution can be obtained by analyzing a Gaussian matrix with…
We obtain the explicit rate of convergence $N^{-1/2 + \epsilon}$ for the gaps of generalized Wigner matrices in the bulk of the spectrum, for distributions of matrix entries possibly atomic and supported on enough points. The proof proceeds…
There has been a growing interest in providing models for multivariate spatial processes. A majority of these models specify a parametric matrix covariance function. Based on observations, the parameters are estimated by maximum likelihood…
Let $G_n$ be an $n \times n$ matrix with real i.i.d. $N(0,1/n)$ entries, let $A$ be a real $n \times n$ matrix with $\Vert A \Vert \le 1$, and let $\gamma \in (0,1)$. We show that with probability $0.99$, $A + \gamma G_n$ has all of its…
