Distribution of the first particle in discrete orthogonal polynomial ensembles

We show that the distribution function of the first particle in a discrete orthogonal polynomial ensemble can be obtained through a certain recurrence procedure, if the (difference or q-) log-derivative of the weight function is rational. In a number of classical special cases the recurrence procedure is equivalent to the difference and q-Painleve equations of chao-dyn/9507010, [Sakai]. Our approach is based on the formalism of discrete integrable operators and discrete Riemann--Hilbert problems developed in math.CO/9912093, math-ph/0111008.

On toric varieties and algebraic semigroups

The main result of this paper is that every (separated) toric variety which has a semigroup structure compatible with multiplication on the underlying torus is necessarily affine. In the course of proving this statement, we also give a proof of the fact that every separated toric variety may be constructed from a certain fan in a Euclidean space. To our best knowledge, this proof differs essentially from the ones which can be found in the literature.
