We analyze complex networks under random matrix theory framework. Particularly, we show that $\Delta_3$ statistic, which gives information about the long range correlations among eigenvalues, provides a qualitative measure of randomness in…
It is well known that the ratio of two independent standard Gaussian random variables follows a Cauchy distribution. Any convex combination of independent standard Cauchy random variables also follows a Cauchy distribution. In a recent…
Iterative load balancing algorithms for indivisible tokens have been studied intensively in the past. Complementing previous worst-case analyses, we study an average-case scenario where the load inputs are drawn from a fixed probability…
The planar rigidity problem asks, given a set of m pairwise distances among a set P of n unknown points, whether it is possible to reconstruct P, up to a finite set of possibilities (modulo rigid motions of the plane). The celebrated…
We study random graphs with latent geometric structure, where the probability of each edge depends on the underlying random positions corresponding to the two endpoints. We focus on the setting where this conditional probability is a…
Bilateral agreement based random undirected graphs were introduced and analyzed by La and Kabkab in 2015. The construction of the graph with $n$ vertices in this model uses a (random) preference order on other $n-1$ vertices and each vertex…
The current work applies some recent combinatorial tools due to Jain to control the eigenvalue gaps of a matrix $M_n = M + N_n$ where $M$ is deterministic, symmetric with large operator norm and $N_n$ is a random symmetric matrix with…
Assume $X_n$ is a random sample of $n$ uniform, independent points from a triangle $T$. The longest convex chain, $Y$, of $X_n$ is defined naturally. The length $|Y|$ of $Y$ is a random variable, denoted by $L_n$. In this article, we…
We develop a limit theory for $1$-cochains of complete graphs with coefficients from a finite abelian group. We prove an analogue of the large deviation principle of Chatterjee and Varadhan for random cochains. We use these new tools to…
Finite sample properties of random covariance-type matrices have been the subject of much research. In this paper we focus on the "lower tail" of such a matrix, and prove that it is subgaussian under a simple fourth moment assumption on the…
This paper is motivated by the question of how global and dense restriction sets in results from extremal combinatorics can be replaced by less global and sparser ones. The result we consider here as an example is Turan's theorem, which…
We consider a Gaussian field $X = \{X_t, t \in T\}$ with values in a Banach space $B$ defined on a parametric set $T$ equal to $R^m$ or $Z^m.$ It is supposed that the distribution $\cal P$ of $X_t$ is independent of $t.$ We consider the…
The random percolation model can be viewed as the dual of a well defined confining gauge theory; since this theory, having no Monte Carlo dynamics at all, is simple to simulate, it is possible to study the properties of the flux tube with…
Linear statistics, a random variable build out of the sum of the evaluation of functions at the eigenvalues of a N times N random matrix,sum[j=1 to N]f(xj) or tr f(M), is an ubiquitous statistical characteristics in random matrix theory.…
We review a result obtained with Andrew Ledoan and Marco Merkli. Consider a random analytic function $f(z) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n X_n z^n$, where the $X_n$'s are i.i.d., complex valued random variables with mean zero and unit variance,…
Optimization is widely used in statistics, and often efficiently delivers point estimates on useful spaces involving structural constraints or combinatorial structure. To quantify uncertainty, Gibbs posterior exponentiates the negative loss…
Condensation is the phenomenon whereby one of a sum of random variables contributes a finite fraction to the sum. It is manifested as an aggregation phenomenon in diverse physical systems such as coalescence in granular media, jamming in…
A generalization of the random geometric graph (RGG) model is proposed by considering a set of points uniformly and independently distributed on a rectangle of unit area instead of on a unit square [0,1]^2. The topological properties of the…
We compute averages of products and ratios of characteristic polynomials associated with Orthogonal, Unitary, and Symplectic Ensembles of Random Matrix Theory. The pfaffian/determinantal formulas for these averages are obtained, and the…
To learn (statistical) dependencies among random variables requires exponentially large sample size in the number of observed random variables if any arbitrary joint probability distribution can occur. We consider the case that sparse data…
