We show that the operatorial framework developed by Voiculescu for free random variables can be extended to arrays of random variables whose multiplication imitates matricial multiplication. The associated notion of independence, called…

A central tool in the study of nonhomogeneous random matrices, the noncommutative Khintchine inequality, yields a nonasymptotic bound on the spectral norm of general Gaussian random matrices $X=\sum_i g_i A_i$ where $g_i$ are independent…

Voiculescu's notion of asymptotic free independence is known for a large class of random matrices including independent unitary invariant matrices. This notion is extended for independent random matrices invariant in law by conjugation by…

Random contractions (sub-unitary random matrices) appear naturally when considering quantized chaotic maps within a general theory of open linear stationary systems with discrete time. We analyze statistical properties of complex…

We study the asymptotics of sums of matricially free random variables called random pseudomatrices, and we compare it with that of random matrices with block-identical variances. For objects of both types we find the limit joint…

We extend the polynomial method of Chen--Garza-Vargas--Tropp--van Handel and Magee--Puder--van Handel for operator-norm bounds in random permutation models to the setting where torsion is present. The main new feature is that asymptotic…

We prove a number of results concerning the large $N$ asymptotics of the free energy of a random matrix model with a polynomial potential $V(z)$. Our approach is based on a deformation $\tau_tV(z)$ of $V(z)$ to $z^2$, $0\le t<\infty$ and on…

In this note, we study asymptotic zero distribution of multivariable full system of random polynomials with independent Bernoulli coefficients. We prove that with overwhelming probability their simultaneous zeros sets are discrete and the…

Appropriately normalized square random Vandermonde matrices based on independent random variables with uniform distribution on the unit circle are studied. It is shown that as the matrix sizes increases without bound, with respect to the…

We obtain uniform asymptotics for polynomials orthogonal on a fixed and varying arc of the unit circle with a positive analytic weight function. We also complete the proof of the large $s$ asymptotic expansion for the Fredholm determinant…

In a seminal 2005 paper, Haagerup and Thorbj{\o}rnsen discovered that the norm of any noncommutative polynomial of independent complex Gaussian random matrices converges to that of a limiting family of operators that arises from…

In this paper we study random representations of fundamental groups of surfaces into special unitary groups. The random model we use is based on a symplectic form on moduli space due to Atiyah, Bott, and Goldman. Let $\Sigma_{g}$ denote a…

D. Voiculescu [2] proved that a standard family of independent random unitary k by k matrices and a constant k by k unitary matrix is asymtotically free as k goes to infinity. This result was a key ingredient in Voiculescu's proof [3] that…

We establish a large deviation principle for the empirical spectral measure of a sample covariance matrix with sub-Gaussian entries, which extends Bordenave and Caputo's result for Wigner matrices having the same type of entries [7]. To…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the free cumulants (in the sense of free probability theory of Voiculescu) of Jucys--Murphy elements--or equivalently--of the transition measure associated with a Young diagram. We express these cumulants…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues of the sum A+U*BU, where A and B are deterministic N by N Hermitian matrices having respective limiting compactly supported distributions \mu, \nu, and U is a random N by N unitary…

The first paper in this series introduced a new approach to strong convergence of random matrices that is based primarily on soft arguments. This method was applied to achieve a refined qualitative and quantitative understanding of strong…

We give a short, operator-theoretic proof of the asymptotic independence (including a first correction term) of the minimal and maximal eigenvalue of the n \times n Gaussian Unitary Ensemble in the large matrix limit n \to \infty. This is…

We prove novel asymptotic freeness results in tracial ultraproduct von Neumann algebras. In particular, we show that whenever $M = M_1 \ast M_2$ is a tracial free product von Neumann algebra and $u_1 \in \mathscr U(M_1)$, $u_2 \in \mathscr…

Let $U^N = (U_1^N,\dots, U^N_p)$ be a d-tuple of $N\times N$ independent Haar unitary matrices and $Z^{NM}$ be any family of deterministic matrices in $\mathbb{M}_N(\mathbb{C})\otimes \mathbb{M}_M(\mathbb{C})$. Let $P$ be a self-adjoint…
