Gaussian vectors with Markov property

Probability 2020-09-16 v1 Metric Geometry

Abstract

We demonstrate the parallel between the properties of Gaussian vectors and the Euclidean geometry. In particular we study the Markov property and give various equivalent Euclidean and probabilistic characterizations. We also give a simple Euclidean proof of the conditional maximality of the differential entropy for the Markov Gaussian vector (related to the Burg's Theorem).
