Noncommutative or free probability is a branch of mathematics that is useful for describing the large-N limits of many NΓN random matrix models. In this theory, classical probability spaces are replaced by pairs (π,π), where π is an (operator) algebra and π : π β β is a certain kind of linear functional. In such a pair, π and π are conceptualized as the space of ``noncommutative random variables'' and the ``expectation'' functional on π, respectively. The analogy with classical probability goes much further; indeed, there are notions of distribution, independence, L^p-spaces, conditional expectation, and more. My talk will focus on my recent joint work with David Jekel and Todd Kemp on developing a noncommutative theory of stochastic calculus. I shall frame the discussion around some joint work in progress with Guillaume CΓ©bron and Nicolas Gilliers: applications of the theory to the characterization of large-N limits of solutions to NΓN matrix stochastic differential equations.
