In this note, we briefly introduce the background and motivation of the collaborative work [arXiv:2508.20797], and provide an outline of the main results. The latter relates to matrix and higher order scalar differential equations satisfied…
Markov decision processes (MDPs) with multi-dimensional weights are useful to analyze systems with multiple objectives that may be conflicting and require the analysis of trade-offs. We study the complexity of percentile queries in such…

In Optimal Transport (OT) on a finite metric space, one defines a distance on the probability simplex that extends the distance on the ground space. The distance is the value of a Linear Programming (LP) problem on the set of…

The multi-indexed Jacobi polynomials are the main part of the eigenfunctions of exactly solvable quantum mechanical systems obtained by certain deformations of the P\"oschl-Teller potential (Odake-Sasaki). By fine-tuning the parameter(s) of…
Baur and Marsh computed the determinant of a matrix assembled from the cluster variables in a cluster algebra of type A. In this article we wish to describe two variations. On the one hand, we compute determinants of matrices assembled from…
A sum of a large-dimensional random matrix polynomial and a fixed low-rank matrix polynomial is considered. The main assumption is that the resolvent of the random polynomial converges to some deterministic limit. A formula for the limit of…

The asymptotic study of the conjugacy classes of a random element of the finite affine group leads one to define a probability measure on the set of all partitions of all positive integers. Four different probabilistic understandings of…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a finite field $k$ with $|k|=q=p^m$. Let $\pi\in \text{End}_k(A)$ denote the Frobenius and let $v=\frac{q}{\pi}$ denote Verschiebung. Suppose the Weil $q$-polynomial of $A$ is irreducible. When…
Given a branching random walk on a set $X$, we study its extinction probability vectors $\mathbf q(\cdot,A)$. Their components are the probability that the process goes extinct in a fixed $A\subseteq X$, when starting from a vertex $x\in…
In this note, we compute the probability that a $k\times n$ matrix can be extended to an $n\times n$ invertible matrix over $\F_q[x]$, which turns out to be $(1-q^{k-n})(1-q^{k-1-n})...(1-q^{1-n})$. Connections with Dirichlet's density…
