On the Spielman-Teng Conjecture

Geometric and Functional Analysis
Let $M$ be an $n\times n$ matrix with iid subgaussian entries with mean $0$ and variance $1$ and let $σ_n(M)$ denote the least singular value of $M$. We prove that \[\mathbb{P}\big( σ_{n}(M) \leq \varepsilon n^{-1/2} \big) = (1+o(1)) \varepsilon + e^{-Ω(n)}\] for all $0 \leq \varepsilon \ll 1$.
