Spectral properties of random triangular matrices

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We prove the existence of the limiting spectral distribution (LSD) of symmetric triangular patterned matrices and also establish the joint convergence of sequences of such matrices. For the particular case of the symmetric triangular Wigner matrix, we derive expression for the moments of the LSD using properties of Catalan words. The problem of deriving explicit formulae for the moments of the LSD does not seem to be easy to solve for other patterned matrices. The LSD of the non-symmetric triangular Wigner matrix also does not seem to be easy to establish.


Inspired by the work of \textit{K. Dykema} and \textit{U. Haagerup} on their DT-operators in [Am. J. Math. 126, No. 1, 121--189 (2004; Zbl 1054.47026); J. Funct. Anal. 209, No. 2, 332--366 (2004; Zbl 1087.47006)], the authors study the moments of the limiting spectral distribution (LSD) of symmetric patterned triangular matrices with independent identically distributed (or with uniformly bounded moments) entries with mean 0 and variance 1, subject also to a technical condition on the link function.NEWLINENEWLINEThe last section of the paper is devoted to a discussion on other variants and absolute continuity.
