In the case $N^{1/9}\\ll q\\ll N^{1/6}$, it was known that eigenvalue rigidity can be recovered by removing asymptotically Gaussian fluctuations. We consider the regime $N^{\\epsilon} \\ll q\\ll N^{1/6}$ and apply a higher-order random correction to the spectral edge in order to capture sub-leading order fluctuations of extremal eigenvalues. We establish local semicircle law near the edge under corrections and recover the eigenvalue rigidity by removing asymptotically Gaussian fluctuations arising from higher-order random corrections.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-08-26T08:02:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60B20" ], "keywords": [ "sparse random matrices", "extremal eigenvalues", "higher order fluctuations", "higher-order random correction", "removing asymptotically gaussian fluctuations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
