Consider the sample covariance matrix $$\Sigma^{1/2}XX^T\Sigma^{1/2}$$ where $X$ is an $M\times N$ random matrix with independent entries and $\Sigma$ is an $M\times M$ diagonal matrix. It is known that if $\Sigma$ is deterministic, then…

The multivariate central limit theorems (CLT) for the volumes of excursion sets of stationary quasi-associated random fields on $\mathbb{R}^d$ are proved. Special attention is paid to Gaussian and shot noise fields. Formulae for the…

In this paper, we use the dimensional reduction technique to study the central limit theory (CLT) random quadratic forms based on sample means and sample covariance matrices. Specifically, we use a matrix denoted by $U_{p\times q}$, to map…

We consider "randomized" statistics constructed by using a finite number of observations a random field at randomly chosen points. We generalize the invariance principle (the functional CLT), the Glivenko--Cantelli theorem, the theorem…

We consider the Laguerre Unitary Ensemble (LUE), the set of $n\times n$ sample covariance matrices $M = \frac{1}{n}X^*X$ where the $m\times n$ ($n \le m$) matrix $X$ has i.i.d. standard complex Gaussian entries. In particular we are…

Estimation of covariance matrices or their inverses plays a central role in many statistical methods. For these methods to work reliably, estimated matrices must not only be invertible but also well-conditioned. In this paper we present an…

We consider two $n\times n$ non-Hermitian random matrices such that the $ij$th entry of one matrix is correlated with the $ij$th entry of the other matrix. However, the entries of any particular matrix are i.i.d. random variables. We study…

We discuss CLT for the global and local linear statistics of random matrices from classical compact groups. The main part of our proofs are certain combinatorial identities much in the spirit of works by Kac and Spohn.

We prove two theorems related to the Central Limit Theorem (CLT) for Martin-L\"of Random (MLR) sequences. Martin-L\"of randomness attempts to capture what it means for a sequence of bits to be "truly random". By contrast, CLTs do not make…
