We study subordination of free convolutions. We prove that for free random variables $X,Y$ and a Borel function $f$ the conditional expectation $E_\varphi\left[ (z-X-f(X)Yf^*(X))^{-1}| X\right]$, is a resolvent again. This result allows…

Motivated by recent work on mixtures of classical and free probabilities, we introduce and study the notion of $\epsilon$-noncrossing partitions. It is shown that the set of such partitions forms a lattice, which interpolates as a poset…

In [15] and [16], we constructed a graph W*-probability space over its diagonal subalgebra. To study this strudture is a good example of Speicher's amalgamated W*-probability spaces. In this paper, we will observe the diagonal compressed…

Let $G$ be a finite, undirected $d$-regular graph and $A(G)$ its normalized adjacency matrix, with eigenvalues $1 = \lambda_1(A)\geq \dots \ge \lambda_n \ge -1$. It is a classical fact that $\lambda_n = -1$ if and only if $G$ is bipartite.…

Let kappa a regular uncountable cardinal and lambda a cardinal >kappa, and suppose lambda^{<kappa} is less than the covering number for category cov(M_{kappa,kappa}). Then (a) I_{kappa,lambda}^+ -->^kappa (I_{kappa, lambda}^+,omega +1)^2,…

In this paper, we generalize a permutation model for free random variables which was first proposed by Biane in \cite{biane}. We also construct its classical probability analogue, by replacing the group of permutations with the group of…

We introduce a novel bivariate copula model able to capture both the central and tail dependence of the joint probability distribution. Model that can capture the dependence structure within the joint tail have important implications in…

We use the convolution method for arithmetic functions of several variables to deduce an asymptotic formula for the number of $k$-tuples of positive integers with components which are pairwise non-coprime and $\le x$. More generally, we…

Cumulants are a notion that comes from the classical probability theory, they are an alternative to a notion of moments. We adapt the probabilistic concept of cumulants to the setup of a linear space equipped with two multiplication…

A probability space is a pair ($\mathcal{A},\phi $) where $\mathcal{A}$ is an algebra and $\phi $ a state on the algebra. In classical probability $\mathcal{A}$ is the algebra of linear combinations of indicator functions on the sample…

The q-semicircular distribution is a probability law that interpolates between the Gaussian law and the semicircular law. There is a combinatorial interpretation of its moments in terms of matchings where q follows the number of crossings,…

Defant found that the relationship between a sequence of (univariate) classical cumulants and the corresponding sequence of (univariate) free cumulants can be described combinatorially in terms of families of binary plane trees called…

Let $f_1, f_2, ..., f_n$ be a family of independent copies of a given random variable f in a probability space $(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, \mu)$. Then, the following equivalence of norms holds whenever $1 \le q \le p < \infty$…

We study the following combinatorial counting and sampling problems: can we efficiently sample from the Erd\H{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph $G(n,p)$ conditioned on triangle-freeness? Can we efficiently approximate the probability that $G(n,p)$…

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…

Algebraic statistics for binary random variables is concerned with highly structured algebraic varieties in the space of 2x2x...x2-tensors. We demonstrate the advantages of representing such varieties in the coordinate system of binary…

Assuming 0^sharp does not exist, kappa is an uncountable cardinal and for all cardinals lambda with kappa <= lambda < kappa^{+ omega}, 2^lambda = lambda^+, we present a ``mini-coding'' between kappa and kappa^{+ omega}. This allows us to…

The Cayley sum graph $\Gamma_A$ of a set $A \subseteq \mathbb{Z}_n$ is defined to have vertex set $\mathbb{Z}_n$ and an edge between two distinct vertices $x, y \in \mathbb{Z}_n$ if $x + y \in A$. Green and Morris proved that if the set $A$…

We introduce and study the notion of k-divisible elements in a non-commutative probability space. A k-divisible element is a (non-commutative) random variable whose n-th moment vanishes whenever n is not a multiple of k. First, we consider…
