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…
Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix whose entries are i.i.d. with mean $0$ and variance $1$. We present a deterministic polynomial time algorithm which, with probability at least $1-2\exp(-\Omega(\epsilon n))$ in the choice of $A$,…
In this paper, we study tail inequalities of the largest eigenvalue of a matrix infinitely divisible (i.d.) series, which is a finite sum of fixed matrices weighted by i.d. random variables. We obtain several types of tail inequalities,…
In this note we show that the singular probability of the adjacency matrix of a random $d$-regular graph on $n$ vertices, where $d$ is fixed and $n \to \infty$, is bounded by $n^{-1/3+o(1)}$. This improves a recent bound by Huang. Our…
We study the statistics of the largest eigenvalue lambda_max of N x N random matrices with unit variance, but power-law distributed entries, P(M_{ij})~ |M_{ij}|^{-1-mu}. When mu > 4, lambda_max converges to 2 with Tracy-Widom fluctuations…
We provide a polynomial lower bound on the minimum singular value of an $m\times m$ random matrix $M$ with jointly Gaussian entries, under a polynomial bound on the matrix norm and a global small-ball probability bound $$\inf_{x,y\in…
We consider the problem of finding the optimal upper bound for the tail probability of a sum of $k$ nonnegative, independent and identically distributed random variables with given mean $x$. For $k=1$ the answer is given by Markov's…
We establish, under a moment matching hypothesis, the local universality of the correlation functions associated with products of $M$ independent iid random matrices, as $M$ is fixed, and the sizes of the matrices tend to infinity. This…
Given a probability distribution P, what is the minimum amount of bits needed to store a value x sampled according to P, such that x can later be recovered (except with some small probability)? Or, what is the maximum amount of uniform…
Let $X_{\lambda _{1}},X_{\lambda _{2}},\ldots ,X_{\lambda _{n}}$ be independent nonnegative random variables with $X_{\lambda _{i}}\sim F(\lambda _{i}t)$, $i=1,\ldots ,n$, where $\lambda _{i}>0$, $i=1,\ldots ,n$ and $F$ is an absolutely…
Let $M$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with entries in $\{0, 1\}$, where each row is independently and uniformly sampled from the set of all vectors in $\{0, 1\}^n$ containing exactly $d$ ones, with $d=pn$ for some fixed constant $p\in…
We re-examine a lower-tail upper bound for the random variable $$X=\prod_{i=1}^{\infty}\min\left\{\sum_{k=1}^iE_k,1\right\},$$ where $E_1,E_2,\ldots\stackrel{iid}\sim\text{Exp}(1)$. This bound has found use in root-finding and seed-finding…
This short note presents upper bounds of the expectations of the largest singular values/eigenvalues of various types of random tensors in the non-asymptotic sense. For a standard Gaussian tensor of size $n_1\times\cdots\times n_d$, it is…
If f(x_1, x_2, ..., x_n) is a polynomial dependent on a large number of independent Bernoulli random variables, what can be said about the maximum concentration of f on any single value? For linear polynomials, this reduces to one version…
The famous \emph{circular law} asserts that if $M_n$ is an $n \times n$ matrix with iid complex entries of mean zero and unit variance, then the empirical spectral distribution (ESD) of the normalized matrix $\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}} M_n$…
The matrix Numerov method provides an efficient framework for solving the time-independent Schr\"odinger equation as a matrix eigenvalue problem. However, for singular potentials such as the Coulomb interaction, the expected fourth-order…
In an instance of the minimum eigenvalue problem, we are given a collection of $n$ vectors $v_1,\ldots, v_n \subset {\mathbb{R}^d}$, and the goal is to pick a subset $B\subseteq [n]$ of given vectors to maximize the minimum eigenvalue of…
Probabilistic analysis for metric optimization problems has mostly been conducted on random Euclidean instances, but little is known about metric instances drawn from distributions other than the Euclidean. This motivates our study of…
Extremal spacings between eigenvalues of random unitary matrices of size N pertaining to circular ensembles are investigated. Explicit probability distributions for the minimal spacing for various ensembles are derived for N = 4. We study…
Given an implicit $n\times n$ matrix $A$ with oracle access $x^TA x$ for any $x\in \mathbb{R}^n$, we study the query complexity of randomized algorithms for estimating the trace of the matrix. This problem has many applications in quantum…
