Abstract Consider a random $n\times n$ zero-one matrix with ‘sparsity’ p, sampled according to one of the following two models: either every entry is independently taken to be one with probability p (the ‘Bernoulli’ model) or each row is independently uniformly sampled from the set of all length-n zero-one vectors with exactly pn ones (the ‘combinatorial’ model). We give simple proofs of the (essentially best-possible) fact that in both models, if $\min(p,1-p)\geq (1+\varepsilon)\log n/n$ for any constant $\varepsilon>0$ , then our random matrix is nonsingular with probability $1-o(1)$ . In the Bernoulli model, this fact was already well known, but in the combinatorial model this resolves a conjecture of Aigner-Horev and Person.

Abstract We discuss the limiting spectral density of real symmetric random matrices. In contrast to standard random matrix theory, the upper diagonal entries are not assumed to be independent, but we will fill them with the entries of a stochastic process. Under assumptions on this process which are satisfied, e.g., by stationary Markov chains on finite sets, by stationary Gibbs measures on finite state spaces, or by Gaussian Markov processes, we show that the limiting spectral distribution depends on the way the matrix is filled with the stochastic process. If the filling is in a certain way compatible with the symmetry condition on the matrix, the limiting law of the empirical eigenvalue distribution is the well-known semi-circle law. For other fillings we show that the semi-circle law cannot be the limiting spectral density.

We compare the Euclidean operator norm of a random matrix with the Euclidean norm of its rows and columns. In the first part of this paper, we show that if A is a random matrix with i.i.d. zero mean entries, then E∥A∥h [les ] Kh (E maxi ∥ai[bull ] ∥h + E maxj ∥aj[bull ] ∥h), where K is a constant which does not depend on the dimensions or distribution of A (h, however, does depend on the dimensions). In the second part we drop the assumption that the entries of A are i.i.d. We therefore consider the Euclidean operator norm of a random matrix, A, obtained from a (non-random) matrix by randomizing the signs of the matrix's entries. We show that in this case, the best inequality possible (up to a multiplicative constant) is E∥A∥h [les ] (c log1/4 min {m, n})h (E maxi ∥ai[bull ] ∥h + E maxj ∥aj[bull ] ∥h) (m, n the dimensions of the matrix and c a constant independent of m, n).

Consider an n × n non-Hermitian random matrix Mn whose entries are independent real random variables. Under suitable conditions on the entries, we study the fluctuations of the entries of f(Mn) as n tends to infinity, where f is analytic on an appropriate domain. This extends the results in [19, 20, 23] from symmetric random matrices to the non-Hermitian case.
