New research introduces variational tail bounds for random vector and matrix norms

A new research paper introduces variational tail bounds for norms of random vectors and matrices, offering a method to analyze these quantities under specific moment assumptions. The paper details a simplified bound using a Gaussian distribution pushforward and applies the approach to derive dimension-free tail bounds for Euclidean norms of random vectors. Additionally, it reproduces existing concentration inequalities for sums of positive semidefinite matrices and establishes new inequalities for sample covariance matrices and random matrix series.

    Variational Tail Bounds for Norms of Random Vectors and Matrices

    arXiv:2503.17300v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We propose a variational tail bound for norms of random vectors and matrices under moment assumptions on their one-dimensional marginals. A simplified version of the bound that parametrizes the ``aggregating distribution''…
