Elementary proof of the spherical section property for random matrices

چکیده

We provide elementary proofs that Bernoulli and Gaussian random matrices satisfy the so-called approximate spherical section property. The best possible of this type was established by Kashin and by Garnaev and Gluskin. In the case of Gaussian matrices, our bound is weaker than theirs (by a factor of √ log n) but uses only elementary arguments. This analysis provides elementary proofs of the main results of compressive sensing.

A NEW PROOF OF THE PERSISTENCE PROPERTY FOR IDEALS IN DEDEKIND RINGS AND PR¨UFER DOMAINS

In this paper, by using elementary tools of commutative algebra,we prove the persistence property for two especial classes of rings. In fact, thispaper has two main sections. In the first main section, we let R be a Dedekindring and I be a proper ideal of R. We prove that if I1, . . . , In are non-zeroproper ideals of R, then Ass1(Ik11 . . . Iknn ) = Ass1(Ik11 ) [ · · · [ Ass1(Iknn )for all k1,...

Explicit constructions of RIP matrices and related problems

We give a new explicit construction of n × N matrices satisfying the Restricted Isometry Property (RIP). Namely, for some ε > 0, large N and any n satisfying N1−ε ≤ n ≤ N , we construct RIP matrices of order k ≥ n and constant δ−ε. This overcomes the natural barrier k = O(n) for proofs based on small coherence, which are used in all previous explicit constructions of RIP matrices. Key ingredien...

Shape-from-Image via Cross-Sections

Using structural geometry, Whiteley showed that a line drawing is a correct projection of a spherical polyhedron if and only if it has a cross-section compatible with it. We here enlarge the class of drawings to which this test applies, including those of polyhedral disks. Our proof is constructive, showing how to derive all spatial interpretations, it relies on elementary synthetic geometric a...

A Simple Proof of the Restricted Isometry Property for Random Matrices

We give a simple technique for verifying the Restricted Isometry Property (as introduced by Candès and Tao) for random matrices that underlies Compressed Sensing. Our approach has two main ingredients: (i) concentration inequalities for random inner products that have recently provided algorithmically simple proofs of the Johnson–Lindenstrauss lemma; and (ii) covering numbers for finite-dimensi...

Adding and multiplying random matrices: a generalization of Voiculescu’s formulae

In this paper, we give an elementary proof of the additivity of the functional inverses of the resolvents of large N random matrices, using recently developed matrix model techniques. This proof also gives a very natural generalization of these formulae to the case of measures with an external field. A similar approach yields a relation of the same type for multiplication of random matrices. 10...
