Take $n\ll N$. Let $P$ be an $n\times N$ matrix of iid $\mathcal{N}(0,1)$ random variables, and let $D$ be an $N\times N$ diagonal matrix. What can be said about the distribution of the largest singular value of $PD$? When $n=1$, I get concentration inequalities from Lemma 1 of [this paper][1]. I would like a probabilistic upper bound for the general case, and I wouldn't be surprised if this is already available in the literature.
