Singular value decomposition of random rectangular matrices
Let $A$ be a $m\times n$ real matrix, whose entries are independent, identically distributed random variables, following standard normal distributions (mean zero and unit variance).
What is the ...

Eigenvalue densities of sample covariance matrices when the population covariance matrix is a perturbed identity matrix
TLDR: I'm looking for a random matrix theory reference for the eigenvalue densities of sample covariance matrices (both dimensions approaching infinity at the same rate) when the true (population) ...

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) ...

Tracy Widom type results for asymptotic distribution of the $k$-th largest eigenvalue of the sample covariance when $n, p \to \infty$?
Earlier I asked a question: Distribution of the $k$-th largest eigenvalue of in the sample covariance matrix?, but I forgot to mention that I'd like results for asymtotic regime. So, I'm posting here ...

Distribution of the $k$-th largest eigenvalue of in the sample covariance matrix?
Let us assume we've a rectangular data matrix $X=[x_1 \dots x_n] \in \mathbb{R}^{p \times n}$, where the $x_i \in \mathbb{R}^{p \times 1}$ are iid column vectors. I'm not assuming here that the ...
