Independences and Partial -Transforms in Bi-Free Probability
In this paper, we examine how various notions of independence in
non-commutative probability theory arise in bi-free probability. We exhibit how
Boolean and monotone independence occur from bi-free pairs of faces and
establish a Kac/Loeve Theorem for bi-free independence. In addition, we prove
that bi-freeness is preserved under tensoring with matrices. Finally, via
combinatorial arguments, we construct partial -transforms in two settings
relating the moments and cumulants of a left-right pair of operators
Distinguishing graphs by their left and right homomorphism profiles
We introduce a new property of graphs called ‘q-state Potts unique-ness’ and relate it to chromatic and Tutte
uniqueness, and also to ‘chromatic–flow uniqueness’, recently studied by Duan, Wu and Yu.
We establish for which edge-weighted graphs H homomor-phism functions from multigraphs G to H are
specializations of the Tutte polynomial of G, in particular answering a question of Freed-man, Lovász and
Schrijver. We also determine for which edge-weighted graphs H homomorphism functions from
multigraphs G to H are specializations of the ‘edge elimination polynomial’ of Averbouch, Godlin and
Makowsky and the ‘induced subgraph poly-nomial’ of Tittmann, Averbouch and Makowsky.
Unifying the study of these and related problems is the notion of the left and right homomorphism profiles
of a graph.Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia MTM2008-05866-C03-01Junta de AndalucÃa FQM- 0164Junta de AndalucÃa P06-FQM-0164
The algebra of the box spline
In this paper we want to revisit results of Dahmen and Micchelli on
box-splines which we reinterpret and make more precise. We compare these ideas
with the work of Brion, Szenes, Vergne and others on polytopes and partition
functions.Comment: 69 page
