Abstract: Let H=A+UBU* where A and B are two N-by-N Hermitian matrices and U is a Haar-distributed random unitary matrix, and let mu_H, mu_A, and mu_B be empirical measures of eigenvalues of matrices H, A, and B, respectively. Then, it is known (see, for example, Pastur-Vasilchuk, CMP, 2000, v.214, pp.249-286) that for large N, measure mu_H is close to the free convolution of measures mu_A and mu_B, where the free convolution is a non-linear operation on probability measures. The large deviations of the cumulative distribution function of mu_H from its expectation have been studied by Chatterjee in in JFA, 2007, v. 245, pp.379-389. In this paper we improve Chatterjee's concentration inequality and show that it holds with the rate which is quadratic in N. In addition, we prove a local law for eigenvalues of H, by showing that the normalized number of eigenvalues in an interval converges to the density of the free convolution of mu_A and mu_B provided that the interval has width (log N)^{-1/2}.
