In practice, observations are often contaminated by noise, making the resulting sample covariance matrix to be an information-plus-noise-type covariance matrix. Aiming to make inferences about the spectra of the underlying true covariance…

Given an $N$-dimensional sample of size $T$ and form a sample correlation matrix $\mathbf{C}$. Suppose that $N$ and $T$ tend to infinity with $T/N $ converging to a fixed finite constant $Q>0$. If the population is a factor model, then the…

In statistics, assuming samples are independent is reasonable. However, this property can fail to hold for the features, a distinction that has led to several lines of work aiming to remove the latter assumption of independence present in…

The vast majority of market impact studies assess each product individually, and the interactions between the different order flows are disregarded. This strong approximation may lead to an underestimation of trading costs and possible…
