This leads to a mean-square version of the free von Neumann inequality and to a free functional calculus for random tuples. We further introduce a hierarchy of higher order defects of the moment kernel and prove that their positivity is equivalent to the existence of a nested chain of projections inside one Cuntz dilation.
