We consider n × n real symmetric and hermitian random matrices Hₙ that are sums of a non-random matrix and of mₙ rank-one matrices determined by i.i.d. isotropic random vectors with log-concave probability law and real amplitudes. This is an analog of the setting of Marchenko and Pastur [Mat. Sb. 72 (1967)]. We prove that if mₙ/n → c ∈ [0,∞) as n → ∞, and the distribution of eigenvalues of and the distribution of amplitudes converge weakly, then the distribution of eigenvalues of Hₙ converges...
We present a general result on regularization of an arbitrary convex body (and more generally a star body), which gives and extends global forms of a number of well known local facts, like the low M*-estimates, large Euclidean sections of finite volume-ratio spaces and others.
We extend Kahane-Khinchin type inequalities to the case p > -2. As an application we verify the slicing problem for the unit balls of finite-dimensional spaces that embed in , p > -2.
We show that, given an n-dimensional normed space X, a sequence of independent random vectors , uniformly distributed in the unit ball of X*, with high probability forms an ε-net for this unit ball. Thus the random linear map defined by embeds X in with at most 1 + ε norm distortion. In the case X = ℓ₂ⁿ we obtain a random 1+ε-embedding into with asymptotically best possible relation between N, n, and ε.
