Éléments de probabilités quantiques (exposés VI à VIII)
The paper addresses several problems left open by P. Biane, F. Goodman and A. Nica [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 355 (2003)]. The main result is that a type B non-commutative probability space can be studied in the framework of freeness with amalgamation. This view allows easy ways of constructing a version of the S-transform as well as proving analogues to the Central Limit Theorem and Poisson Limit Theorem.
We produce generalized q-Gaussian random variables which have two parameters of deformation. One of them is, of course, q as for the usual q-deformation. We also investigate the corresponding Wick formulas, which will be described by some joint statistics on pair partitions.
