Distributional symmetries and invariance principles in noncommutative
probability

Abstract: Distributional symmetries and invariance principles provide deep
structural results in classical probability. For example, the de Finetti
theorem characterizes an infinite sequence of random variables to be conditional
independent and identically distributed if and only if its joint distribution is
invariant under permuting these random variables. Recently significant progress
was made in transferring such de Finetti type results to an operator algebraic
setting of noncommutative probability. My talk will introduce to and overview
some of these newer developments.
