We investigate the bias and error in estimates of the cosmological parameter covariance matrix, due to sampling or modelling the data covariance matrix, for likelihood width and peak scatter estimators. We show that these estimators do not…
Assume that X is a set of sample statistics which follow a special case Central Limit Theorem, namely: as the sample size n increases the corresponding distribution becomes multivariate Normal with the mean (of each X) equal to zero and…
We develop a nonparametric two-sample test for distributions supported on the cone of symmetric positive definite matrices. The procedure relies on the Wishart kernel density estimator (KDE) introduced by Belzile et al. (2025), whose…
We show in this note that the asymptotic spectral distribution, location and distribution of the largest eigenvalue of a large class of random density matrices coincide with that of Wishart-type random matrices using proper scaling. As an…
We study the high-dimensional asymptotic regimes of correlated Wishart matrices $d^{-1}\mathcal{Y}\mathcal{Y}^T$, where $\mathcal{Y}$ is a $n\times d$ Gaussian random matrix with correlated and non-stationary entries. We prove that under…
Let A be a p-variate real Wishart matrix on n degrees of freedom with identity covariance. The distribution of the largest eigenvalue in A has important applications in multivariate statistics. Consider the asymptotics when p grows in…
Covariance matrix estimation arises in multivariate problems including multivariate normal sampling models and regression models where random effects are jointly modeled, e.g. random-intercept, random-slope models. A Bayesian analysis of…
In this paper we study the asymptotic normality in high-dimensional linear regression. We focus on the case where the covariance matrix of the regression variables has a KMS structure, in asymptotic settings where the number of predictors,…

In this paper, we derive the explicit series expansion of the eigenvalue distribution of various models, namely the case of non-central Wishart distributions, as well as correlated zero mean Wishart distributions. The tools used extend…
This paper proposes a unified approach that enables the Wishart distribution to be studied simultaneously in the real, complex, quaternion and octonion cases. In particular, the noncentral generalised Wishart distribution, the joint density…
The power spectrum of weak lensing fluctuations has a non-Gaussian distribution due to its quadratic nature. On small scales the Central Limit Theorem acts to Gaussianize this distribution but non-Gaussianity in the signal due to…
In this paper, we consider the problem of deriving new eigenvalue distributions of real-valued Wishart matrices that arises in many scientific and engineering applications. The distributions are derived using the tools from the theory of…
This paper focuses on the non-asymptotic concentration of the heteroskedastic Wishart-type matrices. Suppose $Z$ is a $p_1$-by-$p_2$ random matrix and $Z_{ij} \sim N(0,\sigma_{ij}^2)$ independently, we prove the expected spectral norm of…
This paper discusses the approximate distributions of eigenvalues of a singular Wishart matrix. We give the approximate joint density of eigenvalues by Laplace approximation for the hyper-geometric functions of matrix arguments.…
This paper deals with the Elliptical Wishart and Inverse Elliptical Wishart distributions, which play a major role when handling covariance matrices. Similarly to multivariate elliptical distributions, these form a large family of…
We investigate random density matrices obtained by partial tracing larger random pure states. We show that there is a strong connection between these random density matrices and the Wishart ensemble of random matrix theory. We provide…
Asymptotic distribution for the proportional covariance model under multivariate normal distributions is derived. To this end, the parametrization of the common covariance matrix by its Cholesky root is adopted. The derivations are made in…
The joint distribution of two off-diagonal Wishart matrix elements was useful in recent work on geometric probability [Finch 2010]. Not finding such formulas in the literature, we report these here.
This paper aims to examine the characteristics of the posterior distribution of covariance/precision matrices in a "large $p$, large $n$" scenario, where $p$ represents the number of variables and $n$ is the sample size. Our analysis…
