The Bradley effect concerns the discrepancy between opinion polls and actual election outcomes that emerges when candidates do not exhibit ideological, sexual or racial mainstream…
Information retrieval and structural complexity of legal trees
Yanik-Pascal Förster, Alessia Annibale, Luca Gamberi +2
We introduce a model for the retrieval of information hidden in legal texts. These are typically organised in a hierarchical (tree) structure, which a reader interested in a given…
Exact and Approximate Mean First Passage Times on Trees and other Necklace Structures: a Local Equilibrium Approach
Yanik-Pascal Förster, Luca Gamberi, Evan Tzanis +2
In this work we propose a novel method to calculate mean first-passage times (MFPTs) for random walks on graphs, based on a dimensionality reduction technique for Markov State Mode…
Polynomial Ensembles and Pólya Frequency Functions
Yanik-Pascal Förster, Mario Kieburg, Holger Kösters
We study several kinds of polynomial ensembles of derivative type which we propose to call Pólya ensembles. These ensembles are defined on the spaces of complex square, complex rec…
