Free cumulants were introduced as the proper analog of classical cumulants in the theory of free probability. There is a mix of similarities and differences, when one considers the two families of cumulants. Whereas the combinatorics of…
In this paper, we investigate a continuous family of notions of independence which interpolates between the classical and free ones for non-commutative random variables. These notions are related to the liberation process introduced by D.…
We construct pairs of algebras with mixed independence relations by using truncations of reduced free products of algebras. For example, we construct free-Boolean pairs of algebras and free-monotone pairs of algebras. We also introduce…
This work concerns notions of multi-algebra independence introduced by Liu and how they can be studied in the context of bi-free probability. In particular, we show how the free-free-Boolean independence for triples of algebras can be…
We introduce a notion of non-commutative joint independence for multiple algebras in a non-commutative probability space. The pairwise relationships between these algebras are encoded by a graph with two edge sets -- a combinatorial…
Many kinds of independence have been defined in non-commutative probability theory. Natural independence is an important class of independence; this class consists of five independences (tensor, free, Boolean, monotone and anti-monotone…
A combinatorial formula is derived which expresses free cumulants in terms of classical comulants. As a corollary, we give a combinatorial interpretation of free cumulants of classical distributions, notably Gaussian and Poisson…
Relations between moments and cumulants play a central role in both classical and non-commutative probability theory. The latter allows for several distinct families of cumulants corresponding to different types of independences: free,…
We discuss free probability theory and free harmonic analysis from a categorical perspective. In order to do so, we extend first the set of analytic convolutions and operations and then show that the comonadic structure governing free…
The theory of cumulants is revisited in the "Rota way", that is, by following a combinatorial Hopf algebra approach. Monotone, free, and boolean cumulants are considered as infinitesimal characters over a particular combinatorial Hopf…
In this article, the notion of bi-monotonic independence is introduced as an extension of monotonic independence to the two-faced framework for a family of pairs of algebras in a non-commutative space. The associated cumulants are defined…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of free-free-Boolean independence relation for triples of algebras. We define free-free-Boolean cumulants ans show that the vanishing of mixed cumulants is equivalent to free-free-Boolean independence.…
In a central lemma we characterize "generating functions" of certain functors on the category of algebraic non-commutative probability spaces. Special families of such generating functions correspond to "unital, associative universal…
A combinatorial approach to free probability theory has been developped by Roland Speicher, based on the notion of noncrossing cumulants, a free analogue of the classical theory of cumulants in probability theory. We review this theory, and…
In this paper, we develop the notion of free-Boolean independence in an amalgamation setting. We construct free-Boolean cumulants and show that the vanishing of mixed free-Boolean cumulants is equivalent to our free-Boolean independence…
Following a review of quantum-classical hybrid dynamics, we discuss the ensuing proliferation of observables and relate it to measurements of (would-be) quantum mechanical degrees of freedom performed by (would-be) classical ones (if they…
In this paper, we develop the theory of bi-freeness in an amalgamated setting. We construct the operator-valued bi-free cumulant functions, and show that the vanishing of mixed cumulants is necessary and sufficient for bi-free independence.…
A summary of a recently proposed description of quantum-classical hybrids is presented, which concerns quantum and classical degrees of freedom of a composite object that interact directly with each other. This is based on notions of…
We extend the relation between random matrices and free probability theory from the level of expectations to the level of all correlation functions (which are classical cumulants of traces of products of the matrices). We introduce the…
I give a survey about my work on combinatorial and probabilistic aspects of free probability theory. In particular, I present the combinatorial description of freeness in terms of free cumulants and I give some ideas of the main results of…
