Abstract

We prove a limit theorem concerning the sequence of star-generators of SS_{\infty}, where the expectation functional is provided by a character of SS_{\infty} with weights (w1,,wd,0,0,)(w_1, \ldots , w_d, 0,0, \ldots ) in the Thoma classification. The limit law turns out to be the law of a "traceless CCR-GUE" matrix, an analogue of the traceless GUE where the off-diagonal entries gi,jg_{i,j} satisfy the commutation relation gi,jgj,i=gj,igi,j+(wjwi)g_{i,j}g_{j,i} = g_{j,i}g_{i,j} + (w_j - w_i). The special case w1==wd=1/dw_1 = \cdots = w_d = 1/d yields the law of a bona fide traceless GUE matrix, and we retrieve a result of K\"ostler and Nica from 2021, which in turn extended a result of Biane from 1995.
