Abstract

We discuss the distributions of three functionals of the free Brownian bridge: its L2-norm, the second component of its signature and its Lévy area. All of these are freely infinitely divisible. Two representations of the free Brownian bridge as series of free semicircular random variables are introduced and used. These are analogous to the Fourier representations of the classical Brownian bridge due to Lévy and Kac and the latter extends to all semicircular processes.
