Abstract
In this paper, the notion of bi-Boolean independence for non-unital pairs of algebras is introduced thereby extending the notion of Boolean independence to pairs of algebras. The notion of B-\((\ell , r)\)-cumulants is defined via a bi-Boolean moment-cumulant formula over the lattice of bi-interval partitions, and it is demonstrated that bi-Boolean independence is equivalent to the vanishing of mixed B-\((\ell , r)\)-cumulants. Furthermore, some of the simplest bi-Boolean convolutions are considered, and a bi-Boolean partial \(\eta \)-transform is constructed for the study of limit theorems and infinite divisibility with respect to the additive bi-Boolean convolution. In particular, a bi-Boolean Lévy–Hinčin formula is derived in perfect analogy with the bi-free case, and some Bercovici–Pata type bijections are provided. Additional topics considered include the additive bi-Fermi convolution, some relations between the \((\ell , r)\)- and B-\((\ell , r)\)-cumulants, and bi-Boolean independence in an amalgamated setting.
