In the paper [25], written in collaboration with Gesine Reinert, we proved a universality principle for the Gaussian Wiener chaos. In the present work, we aim at providing an original example of application of this principle in the…

Rudelson's theorem states that if for a set of unit vectors $u_i$ and positive weights $c_i$, we have that $\sum c_i u_i\otimes u_i$ is the identity operator $I$ on ${\mathbb R}^d$, then the sum of a random sample of $Cd\ln d$ of these…

One-rank perturbations of Wigner matrices have been closely studied: let $P=\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}A+\theta vv^T$ with $A=(a_{ij})_{1 \leq i,j \leq n} \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ symmetric, $(a_{ij})_{1 \leq i \leq j \leq n}$ i.i.d. with…

Let $\a$ be a complex random variable with mean zero and bounded variance $\sigma^{2}$. Let $N_{n}$ be a random matrix of order $n$ with entries being i.i.d. copies of $\a$. Let $\lambda_{1}, ..., \lambda_{n}$ be the eigenvalues of…

Tusn\'ady's problem asks to bound the discrepancy of points and axis-parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Algorithmic bounds on Tusn\'ady's problem use a canonical decomposition of Matou\v{s}ek for the system of points and axis-parallel boxes,…

Let $X_1,\dots,X_n$ be i.i.d. log-concave random vectors in $\mathbb R^d$ with mean 0 and covariance matrix $\Sigma$. We study the problem of quantifying the normal approximation error for $W=n^{-1/2}\sum_{i=1}^nX_i$ with explicit…

We study invariant random matrix ensembles \begin{equation*} \mathbb{P}_n(d M)=Z_n^{-1}\exp(-n\,tr(V(M)))\,d M \end{equation*} defined on complex Hermitian matrices $M$ of size $n\times n$, where $V$ is real analytic such that the…

Can the behavior of a random matrix be improved by modifying a small fraction of its entries? Consider a random matrix $A$ with i.i.d. entries. We show that the operator norm of $A$ can be reduced to the optimal order $O(\sqrt{n})$ by…

Finding the $r\times r$ submatrix of maximum volume of a matrix $A\in\mathbb R^{n\times n}$ is an NP hard problem that arises in a variety of applications. We propose a new greedy algorithm of cost $\mathcal O(n)$, for the case $A$…

We study information theoretic limits of recovering an unknown $n$ dimensional, complex signal vector $\mathbf{x}_\star$ with unit norm from $m$ magnitude-only measurements of the form $y_i = |(\mathbf{A} \mathbf{x}_\star)_i|^2, \; i = 1,2…

We show that for the problem of testing if a matrix $A \in F^{n \times n}$ has rank at most $d$, or requires changing an $\epsilon$-fraction of entries to have rank at most $d$, there is a non-adaptive query algorithm making…

Approximations to the modified signed likelihood ratio statistic are asymptotically standard normal with error of order $n^{-1}$, where $n$ is the sample size. Proofs of this fact generally require that the sufficient statistic of the model…

Let $\hat\Sigma=\frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n X_i\otimes X_i$ denote the sample covariance operator of centered i.i.d.~observations $X_1,\dots,X_n$ in a real separable Hilbert space, and let $\Sigma=\mathbb{E}(X_1\otimes X_1)$. The focus of this…

Let $Z_1,\ldots,Z_n$ be i.i.d. isotropic random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^p$, and $T \subset \mathbb{R}^p$ be a compact set. A classical line of empirical process theory characterizes the size of the suprema of the quadratic process…

We present simple, user-friendly bounds for the expected operator norm of a random kernel matrix under general conditions on the kernel function $k(\cdot,\cdot)$. Our approach uses decoupling results for U-statistics and the non-commutative…

Denote by $\lambda_1(A), \ldots, \lambda_n(A)$ the eigenvalues of an $(n\times n)$-matrix $A$. Let $Z_n$ be an $(n\times n)$-matrix chosen uniformly at random from the matrix analogue to the classical $\ell_ p^n$-ball, defined as the set of…

Matrix sketching, aimed at approximating a matrix $\boldsymbol{A} \in \mathbb{R}^{N\times d}$ consisting of vector streams of length $N$ with a smaller sketching matrix $\boldsymbol{B} \in \mathbb{R}^{\ell\times d}, \ell \ll N$, has…

Although the operator (spectral) norm is one of the most widely used metrics for covariance estimation, comparatively little is known about the fluctuations of error in this norm. To be specific, let $\hat\Sigma$ denote the sample…

Here, using two real non-zero parameters $\lambda$ and $\mu$, we construct Gaussian pseudo-orthogonal ensembles of a large number $N$ of $n \times n$ ($n$ even and large) real pseudo-symmetric matrices under the metric $\eta$ using $…

We give a fast algorithm for sampling uniform solutions of general constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs) in a local lemma regime. Suppose that the CSP has $n$ variables with domain size at most q, each constraint contains at most k…
