Mar 3 at 20:01 comment added ofer zeitouni @MichaelHardy The eigenvalues of Wishart matrices are the squares of the eigenvalues of the block matrix that has X in its upper right corner, X^T in the lower left corner, and 0 elsewhere. As such, they are nothing but what is called "Generalized Wigner matrices". Much of the modern theory (including local laws, universality, etc) applies to generalized Wigner matrices.
Mar 2 at 17:06 comment added Michael Hardy I wonder whether the community will some day recognize a subject called "random matrix theory" that somehow includes the study of Wishart matrices. Many books like the cited one by Terrence Tao never mention those, but I wonder whether, among those not belonging to the present-day random matrix community that consumes lots of things like that book, Wishart matrices my be the most well known random matrices.
