Anna Krystek, Łukasz Wojakowski (Uniwersytet Wrocławski), New examples of associative convolutions arising from the conditionally free convolution
We define two families of deformations depending on the second free cumulant of the measure and new associative convolutions arising from conditionally free convolution.These deformations do not commute with dilation of measures, which means that the central limit theorem cannot be obtained as a direct application of the theorem for the conditionally free case. Surprisingly, for one of these deformations the central limit measure is not symmetric -- its third moment is not equal to zero. To our knowledge, the only other example of non--symmetric central limit measures come from the universal convolution.

Wojciech Matysiak (Politechnika Warszawska): Procesy stochastyczne z liniowymi regresjami i kwadratowymi warunkowymi wariancjami
Tematyka procesow stochastycznych z liniowa warunkowa wartoscia oczekiwana pod warunkiem przeszlosci i przyszlosci (lacznie), wystepujacych w literaturze pod nazwa harness-ow, cieszy sie ostatnio sporym zainteresowaniem, m.in. ze wzgledu na zwiazki z niekomutatywna probabilistyka i matematyka finansowa. Celem wystapienia bedzie podstawowe opisanie rodziny harness-ow o (co najwyzej) kwadratowych drugich momentach warunkowych. Pokazemy, ze takie procesy wyznaczone sa przez kilka parametrow. Pokazemy takze rownanie q-komutacyjne dla macierzy wspolczynnikow rekurencji dla wielomianow martyngalowych. Prezentowane wyniki otrzymano wspolnie z W.Brycem (University of Cincinnati, USA) i J.Wesolowskim (Politechnika Warszawska).

Piotr Sniady: Asymptotic theory of representations of symmetric groups and genus expansion

January 6, 2005, Thursday, 11.30-13.00, room 311:
Piotr Sniady: Asymptotic theory of representations of symmetric groups and genus expansion

Asymptotic theory of representations of symmetric groups asks questions of the following type: what is a typical shape of a Young diagram which contributes to a prescribed infinite series of representations of S_n? Let two large Young diagrams be given; what is the typical shape of a Young diagram which contributes to their outer product; or to a induced; or to a restricted representation? Usual combinatorial methods were unable to solve such questions.

In my talk I will show that for nearly all natural representations (and constructions on them) the fluctuations of Young diagrams around their limit shape have a Gaussian form; in this way I extend results of Kerov, Olshanski, Biane and others. The main tool is the genus expansion: a very universal principle which says that to any combinatorial object we should associate a two-dimensional surface such that its topology determines the asymptotic behavior of the considered object.

This talk is closely related to the series of lectures of Akihito Hora (however no previous knowledge is required and all necessary notions will be introduces); in particular we shall present a one-line proof of Kerov's central limit theroem for Plancherel measure.

Benoit Collins:  Jacobi random matrices and free probability.

Abstract:
we prove that the contraction of a random projection by a constant projection is a Jacobi unitary ensemble. Motivated by this and the asymptotic freeness results of Voiculescu, we study asymptotics of Jacobi kernels with weights varying linearly with the degree. This allows us to prove various universality results and reinforce results predicted by free probability theory.
