ΦΦ-moment inequalities for independent and freely independent random variables

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

This paper is devoted to the study of ΦΦ-moments of sums of independent/freely independent random variables. More precisely, let (fk)k=1n(f_k)_{k=1}^n be a sequence of positive (symmetrically distributed) independent random variables and let ΦΦ be an Orlicz function with Δ2Δ_2-condition. We provide an equivalent expression for the quantity E(Φ(∑k=1nfk))\mathbb{E}(Φ(\sum_{k=1}^n f_k)) in term of the sum of disjoint copies of the sequence (fk)k=1n.(f_k)_{k=1}^n. We also prove an analogous result in the setting of free probability. Furthermore, we provide an equivalent characterization of τ(Φ(sup⁡1≤k≤n+xk))τ(Φ(\sup^+_{1\leq k\leq n}x_k)) for positive freely independent random variables and also present some new results on free Johnson-Schechtman inequalities in the quasi-Banach symmetric operator space.
