Auflösbare Liesche Gruppen mit symmetrischen L1-Algebren.
We use free probability techniques to compute spectra and Brown measures of some non-hermitian operators in finite von Neumann algebras. Examples include where uₙ and are the generators of ℤₙ and ℤ respectively, in the free product ℤₙ*ℤ, or elliptic elements of the form where and are free semicircular elements of variance α and β.
We study continuous measures on a compact semisimple Lie group using representation theory. In Section 2 we prove a Wiener type characterization of a continuous measure. Next we construct central measures on which are related to the well known Riesz products on locally compact abelian groups. Using these measures we show in Section 3 that if is a compact set of continuous measures on there exists a singular measure such that is absolutely continuous with respect to the Haar measure on...
