SUMMARY:The singularity probability of random symmetric matrices
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Let M_n be drawn uniformly from all n by n symmetric matrices with entries in {-1\,1}. In this talk I’ll consider the following basic question: what is the probability that M_n is singular? I’ll discuss recent joint work with Marcelo Campos\, Marcus Michelen and Julian Sahasrabudhe where we show that this probability is exponentially small. I hope to make the talk accessible to a fairly general audience.
