Asymptotic properties of matrices are, in general, difficult to analyze with classical mathematical techniques. In very specific cases, there is a well-known connection between the asymptotic behavior of a matrix's leading eigenvector and…

We investigate tensor products of random matrices, and show that independence of entries leads asymptotically to $\varepsilon$-free independence, a mixture of classical and free independence studied by M{\l}otkowski and by Speicher and…

We reformulate the zero-dimensional hermitean one-matrix model as a (nonlocal) collective field theory, for finite~$N$. The Jacobian arising by changing variables from matrix eigenvalues to their density distribution is treated {\it…

A tropical version of Nevanlinna theory is described in which the role of meromorphic functions is played by continuous piecewise linear functions of a real variable whose one-sided derivatives are integers at every point. These functions…

We prove almost sure strong asymptotic freeness of i.i.d. random unitaries with the following law: sample a Haar unitary matrix of dimension $n$ and then send this unitary into an irreducible representation of $U(n)$. The strong convergence…

We introduce notions of absolutely continuous functionals and representations on the non-commutative disk algebra $A_n$. Absolutely continuous functionals are used to help identify the type L part of the free semigroup algebra associated to…

Free Meixner states are a class of functionals on non-commutative polynomials introduced in math.CO/0410482. They are characterized by a resolvent-type form for the generating function of their orthogonal polynomials, by a recursion…

This paper is devoted to a study of mathematical structures arising from choice functions satisfying the path independence property (Plott functions). We broaden the notion of a choice function by allowing of empty choice. This enables us…

Let $F_n$ be the free group on $n\ge 2$ elements and $\A(F_n)$ its group of automorphisms. In this paper we present a rich collection of linear representations of $\A(F_n)$ arising through the action of finite index subgroups of it on…

Matrices are said to behave as free non-commuting random variables if the action which governs their dynamics constrains only their eigenvalues, i.e. depends on traces of powers of individual matrices. The authors use recently developed…

In this paper we consider asymptotic expansions for a class of sequences of symmetric functions of many variables. Applications to classical and free probability theory are discussed.

We prove an implicit function theorem and an inverse function theorem for free noncommutative functions over operator spaces and on the set of nilpotent matrices. We apply these results to study dependence of the solution of the initial…

For a sufficiently nice 2 dimensional shape, we define its approximating matrix (or patterned matrix) as a random matrix with iid entries arranged according to a given pattern. For large approximating matrices, we observe that the…

In this paper we develop a theory of free holomorphic functions on noncommutative Reinhardt domains generated by positive regular free holomorphic functions in n noncommuting variables. We show that the free biholomorphic classification of…

We prove a number of results concerning the large $N$ asymptotics of the free energy of a random matrix model with a polynomial potential $V(z)$. Our approach is based on a deformation $\tau_tV(z)$ of $V(z)$ to $z^2$, $0\le t<\infty$ and on…

We show that under reasonably general assumptions, the first order asymptotics of the free energy of matrix models are generating functions for colored planar maps. This is based on the fact that solutions of the Schwinger-Dyson equations…

In this paper we observe that isomorphism classes of certain metrized vector bundles over P^1-{0,infinity} can be parameterized by arithmetic quotients of loop groups. We construct an asymptotic version of theta functions, which are defined…
