摘 要:
In this paper, we investigate the geometric fluctuations of principal subspaces for high-dimensional covariance matrices. Specifically, we establish the asymptotic distribution of the sin$\Theta$ distance between the sample eigenspace associated with the $r_p$ largest eigenvalues and its population counterpart. Our central limit theorem is derived under notably mild conditions, particularly accommodating a diverging number of spiked eigenvalues $r_p$, a diverging covariance spectral norm, and the presence of highly heterogeneous spikes. Furthermore, our theoretical results yield deep insights into existing upper bounds in the literature, demonstrating that several known bounds can be strictly sharpened and confirming the minimax optimality of the sample covariance matrix under specific population structures. Various numerical studies further empirically support our theoretical findings.
