Inmathematics, theBrown measure of an operator in a finitefactor is aprobability measure on the complex plane which may be viewed as an analog of thespectral counting measure (based onalgebraic multiplicity) of matrices.

It is named afterLawrence G. Brown.

Definition

[edit]

LetM{\displaystyle {\mathcal {M}}} be a finite factor with the canonical normalized traceτ{\displaystyle \tau } and letI{\displaystyle I} be the identity operator. For every operatorAM,{\displaystyle A\in {\mathcal {M}},} the functionλτ(log|AλI|),λC,{\displaystyle \lambda \mapsto \tau (\log \left|A-\lambda I\right|),\;\lambda \in \mathbb {C} ,}is asubharmonic function and itsLaplacian in thedistributional sense is a probability measure onC{\displaystyle \mathbb {C} }μA(d(a+bi)):=12π2τ(log|A(a+bi)I|)dadb{\displaystyle \mu _{A}(\mathrm {d} (a+b\mathbb {i} )):={\frac {1}{2\pi }}\nabla ^{2}\tau (\log \left|A-(a+b\mathbb {i} )I\right|)\mathrm {d} a\mathrm {d} b}which is called the Brown measure ofA.{\displaystyle A.} Here the Laplace operator2{\displaystyle \nabla ^{2}} is complex.

The subharmonic function can also be written in terms of theFuglede−Kadison determinantΔFK{\displaystyle \Delta _{FK}} as followsλlogΔFK(AλI),λC.{\displaystyle \lambda \mapsto \log \Delta _{FK}(A-\lambda I),\;\lambda \in \mathbb {C} .}
