We study the spectral norm of matrices M that can be factored as M=BA, where A is a random matrix with independent mean zero entries, and B is a fixed matrix. Under the (4+epsilon)-th moment assumption on the entries of A, we show that the…

Let $n,k\geq 1$ and let $G$ be the $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. standard real Gaussian entries. We show that there are constants $c_k,C_k>0$ depending only on $k$ such that the smallest singular value of $G^k$ satisfies $$…
Let $M_n$ be an $n \times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. sparse discrete entries. In this paper, we develop a simple framework to solve the approximate Spielman-Teng theorem for $M_n$, which has the following form: There exist constants $C,…
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 consider the least singular value of $M = R^* X T + U^* YV$, where $R,T,U,V$ are independent Haar-distributed unitary matrices and $X, Y$ are deterministic diagonal matrices. Under weak conditions on $X$ and $Y$, we show that the…

The scaled standard Wigner matrix (symmetric with mean zero, variance one i.i.d. entries), and its limiting eigenvalue distribution, namely the semi-circular distribution, has attracted much attention. The $2k$th moment of the limit equals…
Let $\mathbf X$ be a random matrix whose pairs of entries $X_{jk}$ and $X_{kj}$ are correlated and vectors $ (X_{jk},X_{kj})$, for $1\le j<k\le n$, are mutually independent. Assume that the diagonal entries are independent from off-diagonal…
