โฆ Synopsis
We use free probability techniques to compute borders of spectra of nonhermitian operators in finite von Neumann algebras which arise as free sums'' of simple'' operators. To this end, the resolvent is analyzed with the aid of the Haagerup inequality. Concrete examples coming from reduced C*-algebras of free product groups and leading to systems of polynomial equations illustrate the approach.

We introduce the concept of ''R-cyclic family'' of matrices with entries in a noncommutative probability space; the definition consists in asking that only the ''cyclic'' noncrossing cumulants of the entries of the matrices are allowed to be nonzero. Let A 1 , ..., A s be an R-cyclic family of d ร d
