We study further the asymptotic behavior of $\\nu_\\alpha$ as $\\alpha\\downarrow0$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-02-15T12:43:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "46L54", "60E07" ], "keywords": [ "free gamma distributions", "free probability", "classical gamma distribution", "main properties", "asymptotic behavior" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 31, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
