Abstract

We study the distributional behavior for products and sums of Boolean independent random variables in a general infinitesimal triangular array. We show that the limit laws of Boolean convolutions are determined by the limit laws of free convolutions, and vice versa. We further use these results to demonstrate several connections between the limiting distributional behavior of classical convolutions and that of Boolean convolutions. The proof of our results is based on the analytical apparatus developed by Bercovici and Wang for free convolutions.
