Fuglede-Kadison determinants of matrix-valued semicircular elements and capacity estimates
Abstract
We calculate the Fuglede-Kadison determinant of arbitrary matrix-valued semicircular operators in terms of the capacity of the corresponding covariance mapping. We also improve a lower bound by Garg, Gurvits, Oliveira, and Widgerson on this capacity, by making it dimension-independent.
