Title: “Spectral Properties of Large Random Matrices”
Abstract: The talk will be devoted to spectral statistics of large random matrices with independent entries.
In the first half, I will discuss recent results with Lingyun Li and Sean O'Rourke about (partial) linear statistics of eigenvalues of Wigner, sample covariance, and band random matrices.
In the second half, I will talk about spectral properties of products of independent elliptic random matrices (joint work with Sean O'Rourke, David Renfrew, and Van Vu).
