摘要
This paper extends the work of E1 Karoui [Ann. Probab. 35 (2007) 663-714] which finds the Tracy-Widom limit for the largest eigenvalue of a nonsingular p-dimensional complex Wishart matrix WC (Omega(p), n) to the case of several of the largest eigenvalues of the possibly singular (n < p) matrix WC(Omega(p), n). As a byproduct, we extend all results of Baik, Ben Arous and Peche [Ann. Probab. 33 (2005) 1643-1697] to the singular Wishart matrix case. We apply our findings to obtain a 95% confidence set for the number of common risk factors in excess stock returns.
