On Limit Eigenvalue Distributions Associated to Residual Chains of Groups

Abstract: Let

G

be a residually finite group. We give an explicit example in the discrete Heisenberg group that the Brown measure of multiplication operators

A i n m a t h b b Z [G] s u b s e t e q m a t h c a l B (e l l^{2} (G))

in general can not be approximated using finite quotients

G / N

of

G

. We show that in finitely generated abelian groups the Brown measure can be approximated using finite quotients.
