We revisit the theory of operator-valued free convolution powers given by a completely positive map $\eta$. We first give a general result, with a new analytic proof, that the $\eta$-convolution power of the law of $X$ is realized by…
We give an explicit realization of the $\eta$-convolution power of an $A$-valued distribution, as defined earlier by Anshelevich, Belinschi, Fevrier and Nica. If $\eta:A\to A$ is completely positive and $\eta\geq\operatorname{id}$, we give…
In a 1999 paper, Bercovici and Pata showed that a natural bijection between the classically, free and Boolean infinitely divisible measures held at the level of limit theorems of triangular arrays. This result was extended to include…
Let M denote the space of Borel probability measures on the real line. For every nonnegative t we consider the transformation $\mathbb B_t : M \to M$ defined for any given element in M by taking succesively the the (1+t) power with respect…
We introduce a class of independence relations, which include free, Boolean and monotone independence, in operator valued probability. We show that this class of independence relations have a matricial extension property so that we can…
We use the theory of fully matricial, or non-commutative, functions to investigate infinite divisibility and limit theorems in operator-valued non-commutative probability. Our main result is an operator-valued analogue of the Bercovici-Pata…
Consider the $\mathcal{B}$-valued probability space $(\mathcal{A}, E, \mathcal{B})$, where $\mathcal{A}$ is a tracial von Neumann algebra. We extend the theory of operator valued free probability to the algebra of affiliated operators…
Belinschi and Nica introduced a composition semigroup on the set of probability measures. Using this semigroup, they introduced a free divisibility indicator, from which one can know whether a probability measure is freely infinitely…
Let D be the space of non-commutative distributions of k-tuples of selfadjoints in a C*-probability space (for a fixed k). We introduce a semigroup of transformations B_t of D, such that every distribution in D evolves under the B_t towards…
In the setting of distributions taking values in a $C^\ast$-algebra $\mathcal{B}$, we define generalized Jacobi parameters and study distributions they generate. These include numerous known examples and one new family, of…
On the space of (non-commutative) distributions of k-tuples of selfadjoint elements in a $C^*$-probability space $D_c(k)$, one has an operation $\freeplus$ of free additive convolution, and one can consider the subspace $D_c^{inf-div}$ of…
In this paper we give an analytic interpretation of free convolution of type B, introduced by Biane, Goodman and Nica, and provide a new formula for its computation. This formula allows us to show that free additive convolution of type B is…
The free positive multiplicative Brownian motion $(h_t)_{t\geq0}$ is the large $N$ limit in non-commutative distribution of matrix geometric Brownian motion. It can be constructed by setting $h_t:=g_{t/2}g_{t/2}^*$, where $(g_t)_{t\geq0}$…
In his article "On the free convolution with a semicircular distribution," Biane found very useful characterizations of the boundary values of the imaginary part of the Cauchy-Stieltjes transform of the free additive convolution of a…
We define an extension of the polynomial calculus on a W*-probability space by introducing an abstract algebra which contains polynomials. This extension allows us to define transition operators for additive and multiplicative free…
Suppose V{\nu} is the pseudo-variance function of the Cauchy-Stieltjes Kernel (CSK) family K+({\nu}) generated by a non degenerate probability measure {\nu} with support bounded from above. We determine the formula for pseudo-variance…
In this paper we study some analytic properties of bi-free additive convolution, both scalar and operator-valued. We show that using properties of Voiculescu's subordination functions associated to free additive convolution of…
The key result in the paper concerns two transformations, Phi(rho, psi) and B_t(psi) on states on the algebra of non-commutative polynomials, or equivalently on joint distributions of d-tuples of non-commuting operators. These…
It is a classical result in complex analysis that the class of functions that arise as the Cauchy transform of probability measures may be characterized entirely in terms of their analytic and asymptotic properties. Such transforms are a…
In this thesis we study convolutions that arise from noncommutative probability theory. We prove several regularity results for free convolutions, and for measures in partially defined one-parameter free convolution semigroups. We discuss…
