Random permutation matrix models for graph products

Graph independence (also known as \varepsilon -independence or \Lambda -independence) is a mixture of classical independence and free independence corresponding to graph products of groups or operator algebras. Using conjugation by certain random permutation matrices, we construct random matrix models for graph independence with amalgamation over the diagonal matrices. This yields a new probabilistic proof that graph products of sofic groups are sofic.

Abstract

Graph independence (also known as \varepsilon -independence or \Lambda -independence) is a mixture of classical independence and free independence corresponding to graph products of groups or operator algebras. Using conjugation by certain random permutation matrices, we construct random matrix models for graph independence with amalgamation over the diagonal matrices. This yields a new probabilistic proof that graph products of sofic groups are sofic.
