In July I will be spending a week at Park City, being one of the mini-course lecturers in the Graduate Summer School component of the Park City Summer Session on random matrices. I have chosen to give some lectures on least singular values of random matrices, the circular law, and the Lindeberg exchange method in random matrix theory; this is a slightly different set of topics than I had initially advertised (which was instead about the Lindeberg exchange method and the local relaxation flow method), but after consulting with the other mini-course lecturers I felt that this would be a more complementary set of topics. I have uploaded an draft of my lecture notes (some portion of which is derived from my monograph on the subject); as always, comments and corrections are welcome.

No connections to free probability theory?

Connections to free probability will be the focus of the lectures by Shlyakhtenko.

Even though I do not understand anything, I want to watch the lecture online

This is probably a rather weird question, but what is the bibliography style and/or package used in the lecture notes? I find it visually pleasing and very useful with the MR-links and the page back-references

1.1 The epsilon-net argument
– the proof of theorem 1.1.1(Upper bound for operator norm)
P(||Mx|| <= Cn^{1/2} / 2) < P(||Mx|| >= C n^{1/2} / 2) <= exp( -c C^{2} n / 4 + O(n) )
Thank you for uploading the lecture note.
[Thanks, this will be corrected in the next revision of the ms. -T.]
