A heavy Wigner matrix b5f1c7aab33951f9ca642d1ce9" title="Click to view the MathML source">X_N$X_N$ is defined similarly to a classical Wigner one. It is Hermitian, with independent sub-diagonal entries. The diagonal entries and the non-diagonal entries are identically distributed. Nevertheless, the moments of the entries of $\sqrt{N}{X}_N$ tend to infinity with N  , as for matrices with truncated heavy tailed entries or adjacency matrices of sparse Erdös–Rényi graphs. Consider a family 8d546565fea5f999cdf88" title="Click to view the MathML source">X_N${\mathbf{X}}_N$ of independent heavy Wigner matrices and an independent family b9a741b02850dc" title="Click to view the MathML source">Y_N${\mathbf{Y}}_N$ of arbitrary random matrices with a bound condition and converging in ^⁎-distribution in the sense of free probability. We characterize the possible limiting joint ^⁎-distributions of e6f9a8ff92f82e" title="Click to view the MathML source">(X_N,Y_N)$({\mathbf{X}}_N,{\mathbf{Y}}_N)$, giving explicit formulas for joint ^⁎-moments. We find that they depend on more than the ^⁎-distribution of b9a741b02850dc" title="Click to view the MathML source">Y_N${\mathbf{Y}}_N$ and that in general 8d546565fea5f999cdf88" title="Click to view the MathML source">X_N${\mathbf{X}}_N$ and b9a741b02850dc" title="Click to view the MathML source">Y_N${\mathbf{Y}}_N$ are not asymptotically ^⁎-free. We use the traffic distributions and the associated notion of independence [21] to encode the information on b9a741b02850dc" title="Click to view the MathML source">Y_N${\mathbf{Y}}_N$ and describe the limiting ^⁎-distribution of e6f9a8ff92f82e" title="Click to view the MathML source">(X_N,Y_N)$({\mathbf{X}}_N,{\mathbf{Y}}_N)$. We develop this approach for related models and give recurrence relations for the limiting ^⁎-distribution of heavy Wigner and independent diagonal matrices.
