Stochastic aspects of easy quantum groups

Abstract

We consider several orthogonal quantum groups satisfying the easiness assumption axiomatized in our previous paper. For each of them we discuss the computation of the asymptotic law of Tr(u^k) with respect to the Haar measure, u being the fundamental representation. For the classical groups O_n, S_n we recover in this way some well-known results of Diaconis and Shahshahani.
