Abstract

Let A be an isotropic, sub-gaussian m × n matrix. We prove that the process \(Z_{x}\,:=\,\left \|Ax\right \|_{2} -\sqrt{m}\left \|x\right \|_{2}\) has sub-gaussian increments, that is, \(\|Z_{x} - Z_{y}\|_{\psi _{2}} \leq C\|x - y\|_{2}\) for any \(x,y \in \mathbb{R}^{n}\). Using this, we show that for any bounded set \(T \subseteq \mathbb{R}^{n}\), the deviation of ∥ Ax ∥ 2 around its mean is uniformly bounded by the Gaussian complexity of T. We also prove a local version of this theorem, which allows for unbounded sets. These theorems have various applications, some of which are reviewed in this paper. In particular, we give a new result regarding model selection in the constrained linear model.

Fußnoten
1
In this paper, we sometimes hide absolute constants in the inequalities marked \(\lesssim\).
 
2
Recall that a set T is called star-shaped if t ∈ T implies λt ∈ T for all λ ∈ [0, 1].
 
3
This restriction is not explicitly mentioned in the statement of Theorem  4.1 in [10], but it is used in the proof. Indeed, this result is derived from their Theorem  1.3, which explicitly requires that γ(T) be large enough. Without such requirement, Theorem  4.1 in [10] fails e.g. when T is a singleton, since in that case we have w(T) = 0.
