Student-Run Research SeminarSpeaker: | David Renfrew, UC Davis |
Location: | 2112 MSB |
Start time: | Wed, Oct 12 2011, 12:10PM |
In 1983 Voiculescu introduced free probability in the study of operator algebras. In this talk I will introduce free probability and show how it is a natural (and useful) non-commutative generalization of classical probability. I will conclude with an application to Random Matrix Theory.
