Given a functor $F: \mathcal{C} \to \mathcal{D}$ and a model-theoretic independence relation on $\mathcal{D}$, we can lift that independence relation along $F$ to $\mathcal{C}$ by declaring a commuting square in $\mathcal{C}$ to be…

Using the spectral theorem we compute the Quantum Fourier Transform (or Vacuum Characteristic Function) $\langle \Phi, e^{itH}\Phi\rangle$ of an observable $H$ defined as a self-adjoint sum of the generators of a finite-dimensional Lie…

Voiculescu's notion of asymptotic free independence applies to a wide range of random matrices, including those that are independent and unitarily invariant. In this work, we generalize this notion by considering random matrices with a…

This work investigates the intersection property of conditional independence. It states that for random variables $A,B,C$ and $X$ we have that $X$ independent of $A$ given $B,C$ and $X$ independent of $B$ given $A,C$ implies $X$ independent…

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…

We study the Matsumoto-Yor property in free probability. We prove three characterizations of free-GIG and free Poisson distributions by freeness properties together with some assumptions about conditional moments. Our main tools are…

In this paper, we study compound bi-free Poisson distributions for {\sl two-faced families of random variables}. We prove a Poisson limit theorem for compound bi-free Poisson distributions. Furthermore, a bi-free infinitely divisible…

Let $T_1,...,T_n$ denote free random variables. For two linear forms $L_1=\sum_{j=1}^n a_jT_j$ and $L_2=\sum_{j=1}^n b_jT_j$ with real coefficients $a_j$ and $b_j$ we shall describe all distributions of $T_1,...,T_n$ such that $L_1$ and…

We revisit the description provided by Ph. Biane of the spectral measure of the free unitary Brownian motion. We actually construct for any $t \in (0,4)$ a Jordan curve $\gamma_t$ around the origin, not intersecting the semi-axis…

This work concerns notions of multi-algebra independence introduced by Liu and how they can be studied in the context of bi-free probability. In particular, we show how the free-free-Boolean independence for triples of algebras can be…

We describe a method for unmixing mixtures of freely independent random variables in a manner analogous to the independent component analysis (ICA) based method for unmixing independent random variables from their additive mixtures. Random…

Let $\mu$ be a self-similar measure generated by iterated function system of four maps of equal contraction ratio $0<\rho<1$. We study when $\mu$ is a spectral measure which means that it admits an exponential orthonormal basis $\{e^{2\pi i…

We study unfrustrated spin Hamiltonians that consist of commuting tensor products of Pauli matrices. Assuming translation-invariance, a family of Hamiltonians that belong to the same phase of matter is described by a map between modules…

The present material addresses several problems left open in the Trans. AMS paper " Non-crossing cumulants of type B" of P. Biane, F. Goodman and A. Nica. The main result is that a type B non-commutative probability space can be studied in…

The aim of this paper is to show how free probability theory sheds light on spectral properties of deformed matricial models and provides a unified understanding of various asymptotic phenomena such as spectral measure description,…

A self-adjoint element in a finite AW*-factor is spectrally symmetric, if its spectral measure under the quasitrace is invariant under the change of variables $t\longmapsto -t$. We show that if $\mathcal{A}$ is an AW*-factor of type II_1, a…

For a family of unital free *-algebras with a family of states on them, we construct a sequence of noncommutative probability spaces, which are tensor product algebras with tensor product states and which approximate the free product of…

We build a combinatorial invariant, called the spectral monodromy from the spectrum of a non-selfadjoint h -pseudodifferential operator with two degrees of freedom in the semi-classical limit. We treat small non-selfadjoint perturbation of…

We propose a bivariate model for a pair of dependent unit vectors which is generated by Brownian motion. Both marginals have uniform distributions on the sphere, while the conditionals follow so-called ``exit'' distributions. Some…

Using an analogy between the Brauer groups in algebra and the Whitehead groups in topology, we first use methods of algebraic K-theory to give a natural definition of Brauer spectra for commutative rings, such that their homotopy groups are…
