How to prove that $X_1X_1', X_2X_2'$ are iid random matrices if we know that $X_1,X_2$ are i... [closed]

Let $X_1, X_2$ be two iid random row vectors in $\mathbb{R}^p$, each of whose components are real valued. I'd like to prove that the $\mathbb{R}^{p\times p}$ random matrices $X_1X_1', X_2X_2'$ are al …

First and last order statistics and their ratio for $\chi^2_{m}$ random samples

Let $X_1, \dots, X_n \sim_{iid} \chi^2_{m}$ be a random sample from a chi-squared distribution with $m$ degrees of freedom (d.f.). I was wondering if there's any known result for the order statistics …

Law of large numbers and Central Limit Theorem for eigenvalues of perturbed matrices

I'm looking for results where perturbation by iid random entries to a matrix will result in convergence of the eigenvalues to the original eigenvalues. More precisely, Let $ \forall n \in \mathbb{N} …

Asymptotics of $\chi_m$-distribution where the degree of freedom $m \to \infty?$

I'm interested to see a result where for large degree of freedom $m,$ the chi distribution $\chi_m$ is increasingly well approximated by a family of normal distributions with parameters depending on $ …
