报告摘要:


In this paper, we analyse singular values of a large p×n data matrix Xn=(xn1,…,xnn) where the column xnj's are independent p-dimensional vectors, possibly with different distributions. Such data matrices are common in high-dimensional statistics. Under a key assumption that the covariance matrices Σnj=Cov(xnj) can be asymptotically simultaneously diagonalizable, and appropriate convergence of their spectra, we establish a limiting distribution for the singular values of Xn when both dimension p and n grow to infinity in a comparable magnitude. The matrix model goes beyond and includes many existing works on different types of sample covariance matrices, including the weighted sample covariance matrix, the Gram matrix model and the sample covariance matrix of linear time series models.
