Abstract
A functional limit theorem for the empirical measure-valued process of eigenvalues of a matrix fractional Brownian motion is obtained. It is shown that the limiting measure-valued process is the non-commutative fractional Brownian motion recently introduced by Nourdin and Taqqu (J Theor Probab 27:220–248, 2014). Young and Skorohod stochastic integral techniques and fractional calculus are the main tools used.
