Matrix perturbation bounds (such as Weyl and Davis-Kahan) are used abundantly in many areas of mathematics and data science. Many bounds (such as the above two) involve the spectral norm of the noise matrix and are sharp in worst case…

Low-rank pseudoinverses are widely used to approximate matrix inverses in scalable machine learning, optimization, and scientific computing. However, real-world matrices are often observed with noise, arising from sampling, sketching, and…

The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of nonnormal matrices can be unstable under perturbations of their entries. This renders an obstacle to the analysis of numerical algorithms for non-Hermitian eigenvalue problems. A recent technique to…

In statistics and machine learning, people are often interested in the eigenvectors (or singular vectors) of certain matrices (e.g. covariance matrices, data matrices, etc). However, those matrices are usually perturbed by noises or…

Perturbation theory is developed to analyze the impact of noise on data and has been an essential part of numerical analysis. Recently, it has played an important role in designing and analyzing matrix algorithms. One of the most useful…

Given a diagonalizable matrix $A$, we study the stability of its invariant subspaces when its matrix of eigenvectors is ill-conditioned. Let $\mathcal{X}_1$ be some invariant subspace of $A$ and $X_1$ be the matrix storing the right…

Robustness is a key requirement for widespread deployment of machine learning algorithms, and has received much attention in both statistics and computer science. We study a natural model of robustness for high-dimensional statistical…

Computing the first few singular vectors of a large matrix is a problem that frequently comes up in statistics and numerical analysis. Given the presence of noise, exact calculation is hard to achieve, and the following problem is of…

We perturb a real matrix $A$ of full column rank, and derive lower bounds for the smallest singular values of the perturbed matrix, in terms of normwise absolute perturbations. Our bounds, which extend existing lower-order expressions,…

Across many disciplines from neuroscience and genomics to machine learning, atmospheric science and finance, the problems of denoising large data matrices to recover signals obscured by noise, and of estimating the structure of these…

The Davis-Kahan-Wedin $\sin \Theta$ theorem describes how the singular subspaces of a matrix change when subjected to a small perturbation. This classic result is sharp in the worst case scenario. In this paper, we prove a stochastic…

Let $A$ be an $m \times n$ matrix with rank $r$ and spectral decomposition $A = \sum_{i=1}^r \sigma_i u_i v_i^\top,$ where $\sigma_i$ are its singular values, ordered decreasingly, and $u_i, v_i$ are the corresponding left and right…

Let $A\in\mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$ be a matrix of rank $r$ with singular value decomposition (SVD) $A=\sum_{k=1}^r\sigma_k (u_k\otimes v_k),$ where $\{\sigma_k, k=1,\ldots,r\}$ are singular values of $A$ (arranged in a non-increasing order)…

A central challenge in machine learning is to understand how noise or measurement errors affect low-rank approximations, particularly in the spectral norm. This question is especially important in differentially private low-rank…

The eigenproblem of low-rank updated matrices are of crucial importance in many applications. Recently, an upper bound on the number of distinct eigenvalues of a perturbed matrix was established. The result can be applied to estimate the…

We consider large non-Hermitian $N\times N$ matrices with an additive independent, identically distributed (i.i.d.) noise for each matrix elements. We show that already a small noise of variance $1/N$ completely thermalises the bulk…

Systems with an effectively non-Hermitian Hamiltonian display an enhanced sensitivity to parametric and dynamic perturbations, which arises from the nonorthogonality of their eigenstates. This enhanced sensitivity can be quantified by the…

Assessing data informativity, determining whether the measured data contains sufficient information for a specific control objective, is a fundamental challenge in data-driven control. In noisy scenarios, existing studies deal with system…

This paper is to study a signal-plus-noise model in high dimensional settings when the dimension and the sample size are comparable. Specifically, we assume that the noise has a general covariance matrix that allows for heteroskedasticity,…

The addition of noise has a regularizing effect on Hermitian matrices. This effect is studied here for $H=A+V$, where $A$ is the base matrix and $V$ is sampled from the GOE or the GUE random matrix ensembles. We bound the mean number of…
