We study a generalization of free Poisson random measure by replacing the intensity measure with a n.s.f. weight $\varphi$ on a von Neumann algebra $M$. We give an explicit construction of the free Poisson random weight using full Fock…

A class of random discrete distributions $P$ is introduced by means of a recursive splitting of unity. Assuming supercritical branching, we show that for partitions induced by sampling from such $P$ a power growth of the number of blocks is…

The common structure of the space of pure states $P$ of a classical or a quantum mechanical system is that of a Poisson space with a transition probability. This is a topological space equipped with a Poisson structure, as well as with a…
