Poisson convergence for the largest eigenvalues of heavy tailed random matrices

Antonio Auffinger, Gérard Ben Arous, Sandrine Péché (2009)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We study the statistics of the largest eigenvalues of real symmetric and sample covariance matrices when the entries are heavy tailed. Extending the result obtained by Soshnikov in (Electron. Commun. Probab.9 (2004) 82–91), we prove that, in the absence of the fourth moment, the asymptotic behavior of the top eigenvalues is determined by the behavior of the largest entries of the matrix.

Product of exponentials and spectral radius of random k-circulants

Arup Bose, Rajat Subhra Hazra, Koushik Saha (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We consider n × n random k-circulant matrices with n → ∞ and k = k(n) whose input sequence {al}l≥0 is independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables with finite (2 + δ) moment. We study the asymptotic distribution of the spectral radius, when n = kg + 1. For this, we first derive the tail behaviour of the g fold product of i.i.d. exponential random variables. Then using this tail behaviour result and appropriate normal approximation techniques, we show that with appropriate scaling...
