Abstract
We study a statistical manifold of multivariate normal distributions, where is the Fisher metric and is the Amari-Chentsov connection and is its conjugate connection. We will show that it admits a solvable Lie group structure and moreover the Amari-Chentsov connection on will be characterized by the conjugate symmetry, i.e., a curvatures identity of a connection and its conjugate connection .
