Free point processes and free extreme values

arXiv:0903.2672

Abstract

We continue here the study of free extreme values begun in Ben Arous and Voiculescu (2006). We study the convergence of the free point processes associated with free extreme values to a free Poisson random measure (Voiculescu (1998), Barndorff-Nielsen and Thorbjornsen (2005)). We relate this convergence to the free extremal laws introduced in Ben Arous and Voiculescu (2006) and give the limit laws for free order statistics.
