How fast can extreme eigenvalues of the average of random matrices converge to their expectation?
Suppose that $X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_m$ are independent $d\times d$ random matrices and let $\overline{X} := \frac{1}{m}\sum_{i=1}^m X_i$. One of the questions studied under the theory of random matrices is ...

Prove / disprove: If $1 \le n < N$ and $A$ is an $N \times n$ matrix with iid from $\mathcal N(0,1)$, then $s_\min(A) \ge c\sqrt{N}$ w.p $1-2e^{-N}$
Let $1 \le n < N$ be integers and $A$ be a random $N\times n$ matrix with iid entries from $\mathcal N(0,1)$. This paper (Rudelson and Vershynin) claims in the paragraph just before formula (3.4) ...

Upper-bound for spectral norm of the covariance matrix of a certain Gaussian vector with correlated entries
Let $n$ and $m$ be large positive integers. Let $x=(x_1,\ldots,x_n)$ be a vector of independent random variables from $N(0,1)$. It is clear that the covariance matrix of $x$ is $I_n$, the identity ...

Approximate the singular values of a certain random dot-product kernel matrix (in the sense of El Karoui, Cheng-Singer, etc.)
Let $g:\mathbb R \to \mathbb R $ be a continuous function which is
"sufficiently smooth" (e.g $\mathcal C^3$) around $0$, and
"sufficiently integrable" (e.g integrable w.r.t $N(0,...
