We study the problem of constructing explicit families of matrices which cannot be expressed as a product of a few sparse matrices. In addition to being a natural mathematical question on its own, this problem appears in various…

Datasets from the fields of bioinformatics, chemometrics, and face recognition are typically characterized by small samples of high-dimensional data. Among the many variants of linear discriminant analysis that have been proposed in order…

We consider the linear model $\mathbf{y} = \mathbf{X} \mathbf{\beta}_\star + \mathbf{\epsilon}$ with $\mathbf{X}\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times p}$ in the overparameterized regime $p>n$. We estimate $\mathbf{\beta}_\star$ via generalized (weighted)…

Determinant maximization problem gives a general framework that models problems arising in as diverse fields as statistics \cite{pukelsheim2006optimal}, convex geometry \cite{Khachiyan1996}, fair allocations\linebreak \cite{anari2016nash},…

We suggest an hierarchy of all the results known so far about the connection of the asymptotics of combinatorial or representation theoretic problems with ``beta=2 ensembles'' arising in the random matrix theory. We show that all such…

An important yet challenging problem in numerical linear algebra is finding a principal submatrix with maximum determinant from a given symmetric positive semidefinite matrix. This problem arises in experimental design, statistics, and…

It is conjectured that Hadamard matrices exist for all orders $4t$ ($t>0$). However, despite a sustained effort over more than five decades, the strongest overall existence results are asymptotic results of the form: for all odd natural…

The matrix $A:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^m$ is $(\delta,k)$-regular if for any $k$-sparse vector $x$, $$ \left| \|Ax\|_2^2-\|x\|_2^2\right| \leq \delta \sqrt{k} \|x\|_2^2. $$ We show that if $A$ is $(\delta,k)$-regular for $1 \leq k \leq…

We initiate the study of the algorithmic problem of certifying lower bounds on the discrepancy of random matrices: given an input matrix $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m \times n}$, output a value that is a lower bound on $\mathsf{disc}(A) = \min_{x…

We study the problem of learning in the presence of an adversary that can corrupt an $\eta$ fraction of the training examples with the goal of causing failure on a specific test point. In the realizable setting, prior work established that…

This papers contains two results concerning random $n \times n$ Bernoulli matrices. First, we show that with probability tending to one the determinant has absolute value $\sqrt {n!} \exp(O(\sqrt(n log n)))$. Next, we prove a new upper…

Let $\Lambda$ be the limiting smallest eigenvalue in the general (\beta, a)-Laguerre ensemble of random matrix theory. Here \beta>0, a >-1; for \beta=1,2,4 and integer a, this object governs the singular values of certain rank n Gaussian…

Consider the random matrix model $A^{1/2} UBU^* A^{1/2},$ where $A$ and $B$ are two $N \times N$ deterministic matrices and $U$ is either an $N \times N$ Haar unitary or orthogonal random matrix. It is well-known that on the macroscopic…

We introduce a class of paired binary matrices called admixed arrays, which arise in analyses of large-scale genetic data and can be viewed as weighted edge colorings of complete bipartite graphs. This combinatorial structure gives rise to…

Determinant maximization provides an elegant generalization of problems in many areas, including convex geometry, statistics, machine learning, fair allocation of goods, and network design. In an instance of the determinant maximization…

The convex hull of several i.i.d. beta distributed random vectors in $\mathbb R^d$ is called the random beta polytope. Recently, the expected values of their intrinsic volumes, number of faces, normal and tangent angles and other quantities…

The $\beta$ ensembles are a class of eigenvalue probability densities which generalise the invariant ensembles of classical random matrix theory. In the case of the Gaussian and Laguerre weights, the corresponding eigenvalue densities are…

For a degree 2n finite sequence of real numbers $\beta \equiv \beta^{(2n)}= \{ \beta_{00},\beta_{10}, \beta_{01},\cdots, \beta_{2n,0}, \beta_{2n-1,1},\cdots, \beta_{1,2n-1},\beta_{0,2n} \}$ to have a representing measure $\mu $, it is…

We calculate analytically the probability of large deviations from its mean of the largest (smallest) eigenvalue of random matrices belonging to the Gaussian orthogonal, unitary and symplectic ensembles. In particular, we show that the…

We construct simple, explicit matrices with columns having unit $\ell^2$ norm and discrepancy approaching $1 + \sqrt{2} \approx 2.414$. This number gives a lower bound, the strongest known as far as we are aware, on the constant appearing…
