A Moment Majorization principle for random matrix ensembles

Abstract

We prove a moment majorization principle for matrix-valued functions with domain $\{-1,1\}^{m}$, $m\in\mathbb{N}$. The principle is an inequality between higher-order moments of a non-commutative multilinear polynomial with different random matrix ensemble inputs, where each variable has small influence and the variables are instantiated independently. This technical result can be interpreted as a noncommutative generalization of one of the two inequalities of the seminal invariance principle of Mossel, O'Donnell and Oleszkiewicz. Applications to noncommutative noise stability and noncommutative anticoncentration are given.
