On the non-commutative fractional Wishart process

We investigate the process of eigenvalues of a fractional Wishart process defined by $N=B^{?}B$, where B is the matrix fractional Brownian motion recently studied in 18]. Using stochastic calculus with respect to the Young integral we show that, with probability one, the eigenvalues do not collide at any time. When the matrix process B has entries given by independent fractional Brownian motions with Hurst parameter $H\in (1/2,1)$, we derive a stochastic differential equation in the Malliavin calculus sense for the eigenvalues of the corresponding fractional Wishart process. Finally, a functional limit theorem for the empirical measure-valued process of eigenvalues of a fractional Wishart process is obtained. The limit is characterized and referred to as the non-commutative fractional Wishart process, which constitutes the family of fractional dilations of the free Poisson distribution.
