Correspondence between eigenvalue distributions of random unitary and random orthogonal matrices

In the course of a physics problem (arXiv:1206.6687), I stumbled on a curious correspondence between the eigenvalue distributions of the matrix product $U\bar{U}$, with $U$ a random unitary matrix and ...

What does a product of many Gaussian matrices converge to?

Let $A$ be a product of $n$ $d\times d$ matrices with IID standard Gaussian entries and consider the value of $g(x)=x f(x)$ where $f(x)$ is the density of squared singular values of $A/\|A\|$. Is ...

Large deviation principle for product of iid bounded symmetric random variables

Let $n$ and $k$ be positive integers. Let $X$ be the empirical mean of $n$ iid Rademacher random variables. Note that the distribution of $X$ is symmetric about 0, and also $|X| \le 1$ w.p 1. Let $X_1,...

Concentration of a combinatorial sum

Let $X=(x_1,\ldots,x_p)$ be an $p \times n$ random matrix with iid entries from $\{\pm 1\}$, distributed so that $\mathbb P(x_{ij} = 1) \equiv 1/2$, where $x_i=(x_{i1},\ldots,x_{in})$. Let $y$ be a ...

Additivity of purity of random matrix products

Suppose $M$ is an $n\times n$ matrix with IID random entries drawn from $\mathcal{D}$ and $\sigma$ is the vector of its singular values. Define purity of $M$ as $$\rho(M)=\frac{n \sum_i \sigma_i^4}{\...
