Irreducible representations of free products of infinite groups
We describe the class of probability measures whose moments are given in terms of the Aval numbers. They are expressed as the multiplicative free convolution of measures corresponding to the ballot numbers .
We present an operator-valued version of the conditionally free product of states and measures, which in the scalar case was studied by Bożejko, Leinert and Speicher. The related combinatorics and limit theorems are provided.
We study the nonnegative product linearization property for polynomials with eventually constant Jacobi parameters. For some special cases a necessary and sufficient condition for this property is provided.
We provide explicit formulas for linearizing coefficients for some class of orthogonal polynomials.
We compute moments of the measures , where ϖ denotes the free Poisson law, and ⊞ and ⊠ are the additive and multiplicative free convolutions. These moments are expressed in terms of the Fuss-Narayana numbers.
We compute the moments and free cumulants of the measure , where denotes the free Poisson law with parameter t > 0. We also compute free cumulants of the symmetrization of . Finally, we introduce the free symmetrization of a probability measure on ℝ and provide some examples.
We study relations between the Boolean convolution and the symmetrization and the pushforward of order 2. In particular we prove that if μ₁,μ₂ are probability measures on [0,∞) then and if ν₁,ν₂ are symmetric then . Finally we investigate necessary and sufficient conditions under which the latter equality holds.
We describe the limit measures for some class of deformations of the free convolution, introduced by A. D. Krystek and Ł. J. Wojakowski. In particular, we provide a counterexample to a conjecture from their paper.
We show that each group in a class of finitely generated groups introduced in [2] and [3] has Kazhdan’s property (T), and calculate the exact Kazhdan constant of with respect to its natural set of generators. These are the first infinite groups shown to have property (T) without making essential use of the theory of representations of linear groups, and the first infinite groups with property (T) for which the exact Kazhdan constant has been calculated. These groups therefore provide answers...
