Abstract

Many fields of modern sciences are faced with high-dimensional data sets. In this talk, we investigate the spectral properties of a large sample correlation matrix R. Results for the spectral distribution, extreme eigenvalues and functionals of the eigenvalues of R are presented in both light- and heavy-tailed cases. The findings are applied to independence testing and to the volume of random simplices.
