Let $K$ be a compact metric space and let $\varphi: K \to K$ be continuous. We study a C*-algebra $\mathcal{MC}_\varphi$ generated by all multiplication operators by continuous functions on $K$ and a composition operator $C_\varphi$ induced…

In this work we consider de Branges spaces where the multiplication operator by the independent variable is not densely defined. First, we study the canonical selfadjoint extensions of the multiplication operator as a family of rank-one…

We look at various forms of spectrum and associated pseudospectrum that can be defined for noncommuting $d$-tuples of Hermitian elements of a $C^*$-algebra. The emphasis is on theoretical calculations of examples, in particular for…

In this paper, we present a combinatorial approach to the opposite 2-variable bi-free partial $S$-transforms where the opposite multiplication is used on the right. In addition, extensions of this partial $S$-transforms to the conditional…

In this paper, we examine how various notions of independence in non-commutative probability theory arise in bi-free probability. We exhibit how Boolean and monotone independence occur from bi-free pairs of faces and establish a Kac/Loeve…

This in an introduction to the theory of non-commutative distributions of non-commuting operators or random matrices. Starting from the basic problem to find a good approach to the meaning of "non-commutative distribution" we will, in…

Let $\pi$ be an irreducible unitary representation of a finitely generated nonabelian free group $\Gamma$; suppose $\pi$ is weakly contained in the regular representation. In 2001 the first and third authors conjectured that such a…

Consider the ring $C_c(X)_F$ of real valued functions which are discontinuous on a finite set with countable range. We discuss $(\mathcal{Z}_c)_F$-filters on $X$ and $(\mathcal{Z}_c)_F$-ideals of $C_c(X)_F$. We establish an analogous…

We introduce the notion of envelope of a topological algebra (in particular, an arbitrary associative algebra) with respect to a class of Banach algebras. In the case of the class of real Banach algebras of polynomial growth, i.e.,…

The complex analytic methods have found a wide range of applications in the study of multiplicity-free representations. This article discusses, in particular, its applications to the question of restricting highest weight modules with…

This paper is devoted to the study of $\Phi$-moments of sums of independent/freely independent random variables. More precisely, let $(f_k)_{k=1}^n$ be a sequence of positive (symmetrically distributed) independent random variables and let…

We prove a Cauchy identity for free quasi-symmetric functions and apply it to the study of various bases. A free Weyl formula and a generalization of the splitting formula are also discussed.

We consider the notions of operator-valued infinitesimal (OVI) free independence, OVI Boolean independence, and OVI monotone independence. For each notion of OVI independence, we introduce the corresponding infinitesimal transforms, and…

In [9], we observed Amalgamated R-transform Theory. Different from the original definition of Voiculescu and Speicher, we define R-transforms of operator-valued random variable(s) by operator-valued formal series. By doing that we can…

Recently, Ben Arous and Voiculescu considered taking the maximum of two free random variables and brought to light a deep analogy with the operation of taking the maximum of two independent random variables. We present here a new insight on…

Let $A$ and $B$ be Banach algebras with bounded approximate identities and let $\Phi:A\to B$ be a surjective continuous linear map which preserves two-sided zero products (i.e., $\Phi(a)\Phi(b)=\Phi(b)\Phi(a)=0$ whenever $ab=ba=0$). We show…

In this paper we consider Fourier multiplier operators between vector-valued Besov spaces with different integrability exponents $p$ and $q$, which depend on the type $p$ and cotype $q$ of the underlying Banach spaces. In a previous paper…

In the free probability theory of Voiculescu two of the most frequently used *-distributions are those of a Haar unitary and of a circular element. We define an $R$-diagonal pair as a generalization of these distributions by the requirement…

Let X be a set of analytic functions on the open unit disk D, and let phi be an analytic function on D such that phi(D) is contained in D and f |-> f o phi takes X into itself. We present conditions on X ensuring that if f |-> f o phi is…

One can build an operatorial model for freeness by considering either the right-handed or the left-handed representation of algebras of operators acting on the free product of the underlying pointed Hilbert spaces. Considering both at the…
