This thesis is about high–dimensional problems considered under the so{called Kolmogorov condition. Hence, we consider research questions related to random matrices with p rows (corresponding to the parameters) and n columns (corresponding to the sample size), where p > n, assuming that the ratio <img src="http://www.diva-portal.org/cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi?%5Csmall%5Cfrac%7Bp%7D%7Bn%7D" /> converges when the number of parameters and the sample size increase.

The spectral distribution with compact support is fully characterized by its moments, i.e., by the normalized expectation of the trace of powers of the matrices. Moreover, such an expectation can be seen as a free moment in the non–commutative space of random matrices of size p x p equipped with the functional <img src="http://www.diva-portal.org/cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi?%5Csmall%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7Bp%7DE%5BTr%5C%7B%5Ccdot%5C%7D%5D" />.
