The normal distribution is -infinitely divisible
We prove that the classical normal distribution is infinitely divisible with
respect to the free additive convolution. We study the Voiculescu transform
first by giving a survey of its combinatorial implications and then
analytically, including a proof of free infinite divisibility. In fact we prove
that a subfamily Askey-Wimp-Kerov distributions are freely infinitely
divisible, of which the normal distribution is a special case. At the time of
this writing this is only the third example known to us of a nontrivial
distribution that is infinitely divisible with respect to both classical and
free convolution, the others being the Cauchy distribution and the free
1/2-stable distribution.Comment: AMS LaTeX, 29 pages, using tikz and 3 eps figures; new proof
