Let $\mathbb S_{n-1}$ be the unit sphere in $\mathbb R^n$ and $z_1,\ldots,z_n$ be a i.i.d sample from $\mathcal N(0, 1)$. Question Given $\epsilon > 0$ (may be assumed to be very small), what is a r …

For a Borel subset $B$ of a metric space $X = (X,d)$ and $\epsilon>0$, recall the defintion of the $\epsilon$-blowup of $B$, namely $B^\epsilon = \{x \in X | d(x,B) \le \epsilon\}$. Let $\mu$ be a pro …

Disclaimer. I only started learning the subject of free probability $1$ day ago, and I'm still trying to absorb the fundamentals, while applying them to my own specific problems arizing in the spectra …
