Poisson transform for higher-rank graph algebras and its applications

Abstract

Higher-rank graph generalisations of the Popescu-Poisson transform are constructed, allowing us to develop a dilation theory for higher rank operator tuples. These dilations are joint dilations of the families of operators satisfying relations encoded by the graph structure which we call $Λ$-contractions or $Λ$-coisometries. Besides commutant lifting results and characterisations of pure states on higher rank graph algebras several applications to the structure theory of non-selfadjoint graph operator algebras are presented generalising recent results in special cases.

Rings of non-commutative functions and their fields of fractions

Semi-free ideal rings, or semifirs, were introduced by Paul M. Cohn to study universal localizations in the non-commutative setting. We provide new examples of semifirs consisting of analytic functions in several non-commuting variables. These examples arise canonically in free analysis by completing the free algebra in the topology of ``uniform convergence on operator-space balls'' in the non-commutative universe of tuples of square matrices of any finite size. We show, in particular, that the ring of (uniformly) entire non-commutative (NC) functions in $d \in \mathbb{N}$ non-commuting variables, $\scr{O}_d$, is a semifir. Every finitely--generated right (or left) ideal in $\scr{O}_d$ is closed, which yields an analytic extension of G. Bergman's nullstellensatz for the free algebra. Any semifir admits a universal skew field of fractions; applying this to $\scr{O}_d$ yields the universal skew field of ``NC meromorphic expressions", $\scr{M} _d$. We show that any $f \in \scr{M} _d$ has a well-defined domain and evaluations in a large class of stably-finite topological algebras, including finite $C^*$-algebras, extending a result of Cohn for NC rational functions. As an application, we extend the almost sure convergence result of Haagerup and Thorbjörnsen for free polynomials evaluated on tuples of random matrices to the setting of NC meromorphic expressions.

Quantum channels on duals of von Neumann algebras in the Schrödinger picture

The theory of quantum channels is traditionally studied either on finite-dimensional state spaces or within the Heisenberg picture as completely positive maps on C^*-algebras. In this paper, we consider quantum channels as completely positive maps on the duals of general von Neumann algebras in the Schrodinger picture. We investigate the construction of such channels through Pettis integrals using representations of topological groups.

Infinitesimal Freeness of Wigner Matrices

In this paper, within the framework of real infinitesimal free probability introduced by Cébron and the second author, we compute the real infinitesimal free cumulants of independent complex Wigner matrices. Our approach relies on establishing a combinatorial relation between annular non-crossing partitions and families of directed graphs. As a consequence, we demonstrate that independent complex Wigner matrices are asymptotically real infinitesimally free. In particular, we show (under mild conditions) that a complex Wigner matrix is asymptotically infinitesimally free from its transpose.
