On the singularity of adjacency matrices for random regular digraphs
  We prove that the (non-symmetric) adjacency matrix of a uniform random $d$-regular directed graph on $n$ vertices is asymptotically almost surely invertible, assuming $\min(d,n-d)\ge C\log^2n$ for a sufficiently large constant $C>0$. The proof makes use of a coupling of random regular digraphs formed by "shuffling" the neighborhood of a pair of vertices, as well as concentration results for the distribution of edges recently obtained by the author (arXiv:1410.5595). We also apply our general approach to prove a.a.s.\ invertibility of Hadamard products $\Sigma\circ \Xi$, where $\Xi$ is a matrix of iid uniform $\pm1$ signs, and $\Sigma$ is a 0/1 matrix whose associated digraph satisfies certain "expansion" properties.
