One of the main applications of free probability is to show that for appropriately chosen independent copies of $d$ random matrix models, any noncommutative polynomial in these $d$ variables has a spectral distribution that converges…

We extend the open games framework for compositional game theory to encompass also mixed strategies, making essential use of the discrete probability distribution monad. We show that the resulting games form a symmetric monoidal category,…

We develop a theory of formal multivariate polynomials over commutative rings by treating them as ring terms. Our main result is that two ring terms are s-equivalent (when expanded they yield the same standard polynomial) iff they are…

Higher structures - infinity algebras and other objects up to homotopy, categorified algebras, `oidified' concepts, operads, higher categories, higher Lie theory, higher gauge theory... - are currently intensively investigated in…

Motivated by the recent work of Batkam-Tcheka on pointed multiplicative operads, we construct in this paper new chain complex algebras and two distinct bicomplex algebra structures on a free symmetric connected multiplicative differential…

Free theorems are a popular tool in reasoning about parametrically polymorphic code. They are also of instructive use in teaching. Their derivation, though, can be tedious, as it involves unfolding a lot of definitions, then hoping to be…

This paper is the first of two articles which develop the notion of protoperads. In this one, we construct a new monoidal product on the category of reduced S-modules. We study the associated monoids, called protoperads, which are a…

We study algebraic structures on the free commutative twisted algebra generated by a positive operad $\mathbf q$, in the framework of vector species. Given a nonunital commutative twisted algebra structure $\mu$ on $\mathbf q$, we introduce…

Research on topological phases of matter is a core field in modern condensed matter physics. Free fermion systems, such as topological insulators and superconductors, have been studied using the "Tenfold Way" and K-theory. Building on…

By viewing non-commutative polynomials, that is, elements in free associative algebras, in terms of linear representations, we generalize Horner's rule to the non-commutative (multivariate) setting. We introduce the concept of Horner…

Notions of topological free entropy and of free capacity are introduced in the $C^*$-algebra context. Basic properties, basic problems and connections to potential theory and random matrix theory are discussed.
