It turned out that analysis on the cone is quite feasible if the zero pattern corresponds to a decomposable graph. Indeed, an explicit formula is known for the Fourier-Laplace transform of a product of powers of minors over the cone. Inspired by these statistic works, we develop analysis on the cone in a similar way to theory of homogeneous cones. In particular, we consider Riesz distributions on the cone and associated b-functions. -Yumiko Hironaka --Spherical functions on certain $p$-adic homogeneous spaces, and their relation to PV-theory
