The Dozier–Silverstein theorem asserts the almost sure convergence of the empirical spectral distribution of information plus noise matrices, i.e. perturbations of deterministic matrices whose spectral distribution converges (information matrices) by random matrices with i.i.d. entries (noise matrices). We show that a modification of the original proof given by Dozier and Silverstein allows to extend this result to more general noise matrices, in particular matrices with independent columns satisfying a natural concentration inequality for quadratic forms, matrices with independent entries, satisfying a Lindeberg-type condition (recovering a recent result by Xie), matrices with heavy-tailed entries in the domain of attraction of the Gaussian distribution and certain classes of matrices with dependencies among columns (generalizing those investigated recently by O'Rourke and containing matrices with exchangeable entries). As a corollary we obtain the circular law for random matrices with independent log-concave isotropic rows.

We explore the validity of the circular law for random matrices with non-i.i.d. entries. Let M be an n × n random real matrix obeying, as a real random vector, a log-concave isotropic (up to normalization) unconditional law, with mean squared norm equal to n. The entries are uncorrelated and obey a symmetric law of zero mean and variance 1/n. This model allows some dependence and non-equidistribution among the entries, while keeping the special case of i.i.d. standard Gaussian entries, known as the real Ginibre Ensemble. Our main result states that as the dimension n goes to infinity, the empirical spectral distribution of M tends to the uniform law on the unit disc of the complex plane.

Noncausal autoregressive models with heavy-tailed errors generate locally explosive processes and, therefore, provide a convenient framework for modelling bubbles in economic and financial time series. We investigate the probability properties of mixed causal-noncausal autoregressive processes, assuming the errors follow a stable non-Gaussian distribution. Extending the study of the noncausal AR(1) model by Gouriéroux and Zakoian (2017), we show that the conditional distribution in direct time is lighter-tailed than the errors distribution, and we emphasize the presence of ARCH effects in a causal representation of the process. Under the assumption that the errors belong to the domain of attraction of a stable distribution, we show that a causal AR representation with non-i.i.d. errors can be consistently estimated by classical least-squares. We derive a portmanteau test to check the validity of the estimated AR representation and propose a method based on extreme residuals clustering to determine whether the AR generating process is causal, noncausal, or mixed. An empirical study on simulated and real data illustrates the potential usefulness of the results.

We consider four specific [Formula: see text] sparse patterned random matrices, namely the Symmetric Circulant, Reverse Circulant, Toeplitz and the Hankel matrices. The entries are assumed to be Bernoulli with success probability [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text]. We use the moment approach to show that the expected empirical spectral distribution (EESD) converges weakly for all these sparse matrices. Unlike the Sparse Wigner matrices, here the random empirical spectral distribution (ESD) converges weakly to a random distribution. This weak convergence is only in the distribution sense. We give explicit description of the random limits of the ESD for Reverse Circulant and Circulant matrices. As in the non-sparse case, explicit description of the limits appears to be difficult to obtain in the Toeplitz and Hankel cases. We provide some properties of these limits. We then study the behavior of the largest eigenvalue of these matrices. We prove that for the Reverse Circulant and Symmetric Circulant matrices the limit distribution of the largest eigenvalue is a multiple of the Poisson. For Toeplitz and Hankel matrices we show that the non-degenerate limit distribution exists, but again it does not seem to be easy to obtain any explicit description.
