Abstract: This paper investigates the central limit theorem for linear spectral statistics of high dimensional sample covariance matrices of the form mathbfBn=n−1sumj=1nmathbfQmathbfxjmathbfxj∗mathbfQ∗ where mathbfQ is a nonrandom matrix of dimension pimesk, and mathbfxj is a sequence of independent k-dimensional random vector with independent entries, under the assumption that p/noy>0. A key novelty here is that the dimension kgep can be arbitrary, possibly infinity. This new model of sample covariance matrices mathbfBn covers most of the known models as its special cases. For example, standard sample covariance matrices are obtained with k=p and mathbfQ=mathbfTn1/2 for some positive definite Hermitian matrix mathbfTn. Also with k=infty our model covers the case of repeated linear processes considered in recent high-dimensional time series literature. The CLT found in this paper substantially generalizes the seminal CLT in Bai and Silverstein (2004). Applications of this new CLT are proposed for testing the structure of a high-dimensional covariance matrix. The derived tests are then used to analyse a large fMRI data set regarding its temporary correlation structure.
