Inequality for Voiculescu’s Free Entropy in Terms of Brown Measure
نویسنده
چکیده
We study Voiculescu’s microstate free entropy for a single non–selfadjoint random variable. The main result is that certain additional constraints on eigenvalues of microstates do not change the free entropy. Our tool is the method of random regularization of Brown measure which was studied recently by Haagerup and the author. As a simple application we present an upper bound for the free entropy of a single non–selfadjoint operator in terms of its Brown measure and the second moment. We furthermore show that this inequality becomes an equality for a class of DT –operators which was introduced recently by Dykema and Haagerup.

On Classical Analogues of Free Entropy Dimension
Abstract. We define a classical probability analog of Voiculescu’s free entropy dimension that we shall call the classical probability entropy dimension. We show that the classical probability entropy dimension is related with diverse other notions of dimension. First, it equals the fractal dimension. Second, if one extends Bochner’s inequalities to a measure by requiring that microstates aroun...
متن کاملFree and Classical Entropy over the Circle
Relative entropy with respect to normalized arclength on the circle is greater than or equal to the negative logarithmic energy (Voiculescu’s negative free entropy) and is greater than or equal to the modified relative free entropy. This note contains proofs of these inequalities and related consequences of the first Lebedev–Milin inequality.
متن کاملFractal Entropies and Dimensions for Microstate Spaces, Ii
[1] introduced fractal geometric entropies and dimensions for Voiculescu’s microstate spaces ([3], [4]). One can associate to a finite set of selfadjoint elements X in a tracial von Neumann algebra and an α > 0 an extended real number H(X) ∈ [−∞,∞]. H(X) is a kind of asymptotic logarithmic α-Hausdorff measure of the microstate spaces of X. One can also define a free Hausdorff dimension of X, de...
متن کاملCombinatorial Independence in Measurable Dynamics
We develop a fine-scale local analysis of measure entropy and measure sequence entropy based on combinatorial independence. The concepts of measure IE-tuples and measure IN-tuples are introduced and studied in analogy with their counterparts in topological dynamics. Local characterizations of the Pinsker von Neumann algebra and its sequence entropy analogue are given in terms of combinatorial i...
متن کاملFractal Dimensions and Von Neumann Algebras
Using Voiculescu’s notion of a matricial microstate we introduce fractal dimensions and entropy for finite sets of self-adjoint operators in a tracial von Neumann algebra. We show that they possess properties similar to their classical predecessors. We relate the new quantities to free entropy and free entropy dimension and show that a modified version of free Hausdorff dimension is an algebrai...
