Abstract: Let w be a word in a free group. A few years ago, Magee and I discovered that the stable commutator length (scl) of w, which is a well-studied topological invariant, can also be defined in terms of certain Fourier coefficients of w-random unitary matrices. But there are very natural ways to tweak the random-matrix side of this story: one may consider, for example, w-random permutations or w-random orthogonal matrices, and apply the same definition to obtain other "stable" invariants of words. Are these invariants interesting? Do they have, too, alternative topological/combinatorial definitions? In a joint work with Yotam Shomroni, we show that the above result with scl is not a lonely instance but, rather, part of a pattern. In particular, we prove a similar result with Wilton's stable primitivity rank.
