Abstract
Motivated by the stochastic block model, we investigate a class of Wigner-type matrices with certain block structures and establish a CLT for the corresponding linear spectral statistics (LSS) via the large-deviation bounds from local law and the cumulant expansion formula. We apply the results to the stochastic block model. Specifically, a class of renormalized adjacency matrices will be block-Wigner-type matrices. Further, we show that for certain estimator of such renormalized adjacency matrices, which will be no longer Wigner-type but share long-range non-decaying weak correlations among the entries, the LSS of such estimators will still share the same limiting behavior as those of the block-Wigner-type matrices, thus enabling hypothesis testing about stochastic block model.
