报告主题：Spectral Properties of Rescaled Sample Correlation Matrix

报告摘要

Under the high-dimensional setting that the data dimension and sample size tend to infinity proportionally, we derive the limiting spectral distribution and establish the central limit theorem of eigenvalue statistics of rescaled sample correlation matrices. Distinguished from existing literature, our proposed spectral properties do not require Gaussian distribution assumption or the assumption that the population correlation matrix equals to an identity matrix. The asymptotic mean and variance-covariance in our proposed central limit theorem can be expressed as one-dimensional and two-dimensional contour integrals on a unit circle centered at the origin. Not only is the established central limit theorem of eigenvalue statistics of rescaled sample correlation matrices very different from that of eigenvalue statistics of sample covariance matrices, but also very different from the central limit theorem of eigenvalue statistics of sample correlation matrices with population correlation matrix equalling to an identity matrix. Moreover, to illustrate the spectral properties, we propose three test statistics for the hypothesis testing problem whether the population correlation matrix equals to a given matrix. Furthermore, we conduct extensive simulation studies to investigate the performance of our proposed testing procedures.
