Tools for analyzing least singular values of smoothed random matrices

The paper develops new techniques for lower bounding least singular values of random matrices with limited randomness. The entries depend on polynomials of underlying random variables. This setting captures key challenges in smoothed analysis. The tools involve hierarchical nets and reasoning about higher-order lifts of smoothed matrices. Applications include smoothed analysis guarantees for power sum decompositions, subspace clustering, and certifying robust entanglement.
