In this manuscript we consider random objects being measured in multiple metric spaces, which may arise when those objects may be measured in multiple distinct ways. In this new multivariate setting, we define a Fr\'echet covariance and…

We investigate determinantal varieties for symmetric matrices that have zero blocks along the main diagonal. In theoretical physics, these arise as Gram matrices for kinematic variables in quantum field theories. We study the ideals of…

This article studies the limiting behavior of a class of robust population covariance matrix estimators, originally due to Maronna in 1976, in the regime where both the number of available samples and the population size grow large. Using…
