Limiting Distributions of Sums with Random Spectral Weights

Abstract

This paper studies the asymptotic properties of weighted sums of the form $Z_n=\sum_{i=1}^n a_i X_i$, in which $X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n$ are i.i.d.~random variables and $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n$ correspond to either eigenvalues or singular values in the classic Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi-Gilbert model. In particular, we prove central limit-type theorems for the sequences $n^{-1}Z_n$ with varying conditions imposed on $X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n$.
