Abstract
The determination of the distributions of the eigenvalues associated with matrix-variate gamma and beta random variables of either type proves to be a challenging problem. Several of the approaches utilized so far yield unwieldy representations that, for instance, are expressed in terms of multiple integrals, functions of skew symmetric matrices, ratios of determinants, solutions of differential equations, zonal polynomials, and products of incomplete gamma or beta functions. In the present paper, representations of the density functions of the smallest, largest and jth largest eigenvalues of matrix-variate gamma and each type of beta random variables are explicitly provided as finite sums when certain parameters are integers and, as explicit series, in the general situations. In each instance, both the real and complex cases are considered. The derivations initially involve an orthonormal or unitary transformation whereby the wedge products of the differential elements of the eigenvalues can be worked out from those of the original matrix-variate random variables. Some of these results also address the distribution of the eigenvalues of a central Wishart matrix as well as eigenvalue problems arising in connection with the analysis of variance procedure and certain tests of hypotheses in multivariate analysis. Additionally, three numerical examples are provided for illustration purposes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
