Stable Phase Retrieval for Spans of Independent Random Variables

After $L^2$ normalization, stable phase retrieval holds over the $L^2$-spans of independent real-valued centered random variables exactly when all but possibly one coordinate satisfies a uniform two-sided $L^1$ bound. This confirms the characterization conjectured by Calderbank, Daubechies, Freeman and Freeman.
