Title: Free Probability. Abstract: We study a family of free stochastic processes whose covariance kernels K may be derived as a transform of tempered measures σ. These processes arise, for example, in consideration of non-commutative analysis involving free probability. Hence our use of semi-circle distributions, as opposed to Gaussians. In this setting we find an orthonormal basis in the corresponding non-commutative L2 of sample-space. We define a stochastic integral for our family of...

Van Allen Hall
Watch the skies! Join the University of Iowa Department of Physics & Astronomy as we use small telescopes on the southeast lawn of Van Allen Hall as well as the rooftop Van Allen Observatory to tour the spring sky. To attend this Astronomy observation session, either join the event on the ground level outside of Van Allen Hall or follow the signs inside of Van Allen Hall to reach the rooftop observatory.
