The Brown measure is a generalization of the eigenvalue distribution for a general (not necessarily normal) operator in a finite von Neumann algebra (i.e. a von Neumann algebra which possesses a trace). It was introduced by Larry Brown in [46], but fell into obscurity soon after. It was revived by Haagerup and Larsen [85] and played an important role in Haagerup’s investigations around the invariant subspace problem [87].
