Multivariate Analysis and Jacobi Ensembles: Largest eigenvalue, Tracy Widom Limits and Rates of Convergence
Iain M. Johnstone ;
Date 23 Mar 2008
AbstractLet $A$ and $B$ be independent, central Wishart matrices in $p$ variables with common covariance and having $m$ and $n$ degrees of freedom respectively. The distribution of the largest eigenvalue of $(A+B)^{-1}B$ has numerous applications in multivariate statistics, but is difficult to calculate exactly. Suppose that $m$ and $n$ grow in proportion to $p$. We show that after centering and scaling, the distribution is approximated to second order, $O(p^{-2/3})$, by the Tracy-Widom law. The results are obtained for both complex and then real valued data by using methods of random matrix theory to study the largest eigenvalue of the Jacobi unitary and orthogonal ensembles. Asymptotic approximations of Jacobi polynomials near the largest zero play a central role.
