We investigate the statistics of the largest eigenvalue, $\lambda_{\rm max}$, in an ensemble of $N\times N$ large ($N\gg 1$) sparse adjacency matrices, $A_N$. The most attention is paid to the distribution and typical fluctuations of…
We give simple criteria to identify the exponential order of magnitude of the absolute value of the determinant for wide classes of random matrix models, not requiring the assumption of invariance. These include Gaussian matrices with…
We propose the following model of a random graph on n vertices. Let F be a distribution in R_+^{n(n-1)/2} with a coordinate for every pair i$ with 1 \le i,j \le n. Then G_{F,p} is the distribution on graphs with n vertices obtained by…
The Riemannian geometry of covariance matrices has been essential to several successful applications, in computer vision, biomedical signal and image processing, and radar data processing. For these applications, an important ongoing…
We study the porous medium equation (PME) in one space dimension in presence of additive non-conservative white noise, and interpreted as a stochastic growth equation for the height field of an interface. We predict the values of the two…
We study the reduced energy spectrum $\{E_{i}^{(n)}\}$, which is constructed by picking one level from every $n$ levels of the original spectrum $\{E_{i}\}$, in a Gaussian ensemble of random matrix with Dyson index $\beta\in \left( 0,\infty…
The Tracy-Widom distribution that has been much studied in recent years can be thought of as an extreme value distribution. We discuss interpolation between the classical extreme value distribution $\exp(-\exp(-x))$, the Gumbel distribution…
The Luria-Delbr\"uck distribution is a classical model of mutations in cell kinetics. It is obtained as a limit when the probability of mutation tends to zero and the number of divisions to infinity. It can be interpreted as a compound…
For a unimodular random graph $(G,\rho)$, we consider deformations of its intrinsic path metric by a (random) weighting of its vertices. This leads to the notion of the conformal growth exponent of $(G,\rho)$, which is the best asymptotic…
We study the time dependence of the grain size distribution N(r,t) during crystallization of a d-dimensional solid. A partial differential equation including a source term for nuclei and a growth law for grains is solved analytically for…
Successive pairs of pseudo-random numbers generated by standard linear congruential transformations display ordered patterns of parallel lines. We study the ``ordered'' and ``chaotic'' distribution of such pairs by solving the eigenvalue…
We consider the set of random Bienaym\'e-Galton-Watson trees with a bounded number of offspring and bounded number of generations as a statistical mechanics model: a random tree is a rooted subtree of the maximal tree; the spin at a given…
We study the rate of convergence for the largest eigenvalue distributions in the Gaussian unitary and orthogonal ensembles to their Tracy-Widom limits. We show that one can achieve an $O(N^{-2/3})$ rate with particular choices of the…
We derive Painlev\'e--type expressions for the distribution of the $m^{th}$ largest eigenvalue in the Gaussian Orthogonal and Symplectic Ensembles in the edge scaling limit. The work of Johnstone and Soshnikov (see [7], [10]) implies the…
We discuss probabilistic models of random covariance structures defined by distributions over sparse eigenmatrices. The decomposition of orthogonal matrices in terms of Givens rotations defines a natural, interpretable framework for…
We consider a Gibbs distribution over all spanning trees of an undirected, edge weighted finite graph, where, up to normalization, the probability of each tree is given by the product of its edge weights. Defining the weighted degree of a…
We consider a multivariate linear response regression in which the number of responses and predictors is large and comparable with the number of observations, and the rank of the matrix of regression coefficients is assumed to be small. We…
Within finite-dimensional generalized probabilistic theories (GPTs), we distinguish between the geometric transition probability tau(psi,phi), defined as the maximum probability of accepting phi when the state is psi, and the predictive…
The scaled standard Wigner matrix (symmetric with mean zero, variance one i.i.d. entries), and its limiting eigenvalue distribution, namely the semi-circular distribution, has attracted much attention. The $2k$th moment of the limit equals…
We introduce a new random mapping model, $T_n^{\hat D}$, which maps the set $\{1,2,...,n\}$ into itself.The random mapping $T_n^{\hat D}$ is constructed using a collection of exchangeable random variables $\hat{D}_1, ....,\hat{D}_n$ which…
