A central limit theorem for partial transposes of multipartite Wishart matrices

Abstract

The partial transposition from quantum information theory provides a new source to distill the so-called asymptotic freeness without the assumption of classical independence between random matrices. Indeed, a recent paper [MP19] established asymptotic freeness between partial transposes in the bipartite situation. In this paper, we prove almost sure asymptotic freeness in the general multipartite situation and establish a central limit theorem for the partial transposes.
