On the Brown measure of $x + i y$, with $x,y$ selfadjoint and $y$ free Poisson

Published 29 Dec 2025 in math.OA, math-ph, and math.PR | (2512.23528v1)

Abstract: Let $x,y$ be freely independent selfadjoint elements in a $W{*}$-probability space, where $y$ has free Poisson distribution of parameter $p$. We pursue a methodology for computing the absolutely continuous part of the Brown measure of $x + i y$, which relies on the matrix-valued subordination function $Ω$ of the Hermitization of $x + i y$, and on the fact that $Ω$ has an explicitly described left inverse $H$. Our main point is that the Brown measure of $x + i y$ becomes more approachable when it is reparametrized via a certain change of variable $h : \mathcal{D} \to \mathcal{M}$, with $\mathcal{D}, \mathcal{M}$ open subsets of $\mathbb{C}$, where $\mathcal{D}$ and $h$ are defined in terms of the aforementioned left inverse $H$, and $\mathrm{cl} \,(\mathcal{M})$ contains the support of the Brown measure. More precisely, we find (with some conditions on the distribution of $x$, which have to be imposed for certain values of the parameter $p$) the following formula: [ f(s + i \, t) =\frac{1}{4π}\left[\frac{2}{t}\left(\frac{\partial α}{\partial s} +\frac{\partial β}{\partial t}\right)-\frac{2}{t}-\frac{2β}{t2}\right], \ \ s + i \, t \in \mathcal{M}, ] where $f$ is the density of the absolutely continuous part of the Brown measure and the functions $α, β: \mathcal{M} \to \mathbb{R}$ are the real and respectively the imaginary part of $h{-1}$.
