The distribution of eigenvalues of linear combinations of random unitary matrices
Suppose that $\alpha_{1},\dots,\alpha_{r}$ are non-zero complex numbers. Let $U_{1},\dots,U_{r}$ be random $n\times n$-unitary matrices. Let $A=\alpha_{1}U_{1}+\dots+\alpha_{r}U_{r}$.
I have observed ...

Maximum volume submatrices of a Khatri-Rao product of matrix exponentials
My question requires quite a bit of setup, which leads to a conjecture. So I split my question into three parts, Setup, Conjecture, and Question.
Setup:
Pick any two right stochastic matrices $\...

Expectation of square root of positive definite matrix
Let $U$ be a random matrix, supported on the positive-definite cone of matrices.
We denote $\sqrt{U}$ to be the principal square root of $U$. That is, the unique positive-definite matrix such that $\...

Moments from characteristic function for matrices
When $x$ is a random variable with the smooth characteristic function $\phi_x(t) = \mathbb{E}e^{itx}$, we can easily compute the moments as $\mathbb{E}[x^k] = i^{-n}\phi_x^{(n)}(0)$. There is no magic ...
