Strong convergence of uniformly random permutation representations of surface groups
Michael Magee, Doron Puder, Ramon van Handel
Let be the fundamental group of a closed orientable surface of genus at least two. Consider the composition of a uniformly random element of with the $(…

Strong convergence of unitary and permutation representations of discrete groups
Michael Magee
We survey a research program on the strong convergence of unitary and permutation representations of discrete groups. We also take the opportunity to flesh out details that have no…

Strong asymptotic freeness of Haar unitaries in quasi-exponential dimensional representations
Michael Magee, Mikael de la Salle
We prove almost sure strong asymptotic freeness of i.i.d. random unitaries with the following law: sample a Haar unitary matrix of dimension and then send this unitary into an…
