    Let \(\mathcal Q_{g,n}\) be the moduli space of quadratic differentials on genus \(g\) Riemann surfaces with at worst simple poles at the \(n\) marked points. It carries a natural volume form given by period coordinates with respect to the induced flat metric, and the associate volume \(\mathrm{Vol}~\mathcal Q_{g,n}\) (after suitable normalization) is called the Masur-Veech volume of the principal strata of quadratic differentials. In [``Masur-Veech volumes and intersection theory: the principal strata of quadratic differentials'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:1912.02267}] \textit{D. Chen} et al. gave an expression of \(\mathrm{Vol}~\mathcal Q_{g,n}\) via certain linear Hodge integrals on the Deligen-Mumford moduli space of curves. Based on this formula, the authors apply the theory of integrable systems to derive a number of relations for the generating series of \(\mathrm{Vol}~\mathcal Q_{g,n}\). Moreover, they provide refinements of the conjectural formulas given in [\textit{A. Aggarwal} et al., Arnold Math. J. 6, No. 2, 149--161 (2020; Zbl 1452.14026)] for the large genus asymptotics of the \(\mathrm{Vol}~\mathcal Q_{g,n}\) as well as the associated area Siegel-Veech constants. As a remark, the original version of the large genus asymptotic conjecture for \(\mathrm{Vol}~\mathcal Q_{g,n}\) has been recently setted by \textit{A. Aggarwal} [``Large genus asymptotics for intersection numbers and principal strata volumes of quadratic differentials'', Preprint, \url{arXiv:2004.05042}].
