We give a precise functional comparison between classical and free convolutions. If $\mu$ and $\nu$ are compactly supported probability measures, we show that the expectation of $f$ over the classical convolution $\mu * \nu$ is at least the…

Belinschi and Nica introduced a composition semigroup on the set of probability measures. Using this semigroup, they introduced a free divisibility indicator, from which one can know whether a probability measure is freely infinitely…

We introduce and study a new type of convolution of probability measures called the orthogonal convolution, which is related to the monotone convolution. Using this convolution, we derive alternating decompositions of the free additive…

Initiated by a result of Gorin and Marcus [Int. Math. Res. Not., (3):883--913, 2020] and an observation of Steinerberger [Proc. Amer. Math. Soc., 147(11):4733--4744, 2019], there has been a recent growing body of literature connecting…

In this paper, we study the supports of measures in the free additive convolution semigroup $\{\mu^{\boxplus t}:t>1\}$, where $\mu$ is a Borel probability measure on $\mathbb{R}$. We give a formula for the density of the absolutely…

Finite-free additive and multiplicative convolutions are operations on the set of polynomials with real roots, introduced independently by Szeg\"{o} and Walsh in the 1920s. These operations have regained some interest, in the last decade,…

We derive a formula for the moments and the free cumulants of the multiplication of $k$ free random variables in terms of $k$-equal and $k$-divisible non-crossing partitions. This leads to a new simple proof for the bounds of the right-edge…

We introduce a class of independence relations, which include free, Boolean and monotone independence, in operator valued probability. We show that this class of independence relations have a matricial extension property so that we can…

We introduce a finite version of free probability and show the link between recent results using polynomial convolutions and the traditional theory of free probability. One tool for accomplishing this is a seemingly new transformation that…

We consider the three finite free convolutions for polynomials studied in a recent paper by Marcus, Spielman, and Srivastava. Each can be described either by direct explicit formulae or in terms of operations on randomly rotated matrices.…

In this article we introduce powerful tools and techniques from invariant theory to free analysis. This enables us to study free maps with involution. These maps are free noncommutative analogs of real analytic functions of several…

For irreducible integer polynomials $f(n)=n^d+c$ we prove an asymptotic formula for the number of $k$-th power free values taken by $f(n)$, for $n$ running up to $x$, subject to the condition $k\ge (5d+3)/9$. This improves earlier results…
