Random correlation matrices are studied for both theoretical interestingness and importance for applications. The author of [6] is interested in their interpretation as covariance matrices of purely random signals, the authors of [16]…
This paper derives the elliptical matrix variate version of the well known univariate Birnbaum and Saunders distribution. A generalisation based on a matrix transformation is proposed, instead of the independent element by element…
The focus in this paper is on elliptic homogenization of a certain kind of possibly non-periodic problems. A non-periodic and two-dimensional example is studied, where we numerically illustrate the homogenized matrix.
We are concerned with an approximation problem for a symmetric positive semidefinite matrix due to motivation from a class of nonlinear machine learning methods. We discuss an approximation approach that we call {matrix ridge…
In this thesis, a Bayes linear methodology for the adjustment of covariance matrices is presented and discussed. A geometric framework for quantifying uncertainties about covariance matrices is set up, and an inner-product for spaces of…
We study invertibility of matrices of the form $D+R$ where $D$ is an arbitrary symmetric deterministic matrix, and $R$ is a symmetric random matrix whose independent entries have continuous distributions with bounded densities. We show that…
The paper discusses progress in understanding statistical properties of complex eigenvalues (and corresponding eigenvectors) of weakly non-unitary and non-Hermitian random matrices. Ensembles of this type emerge in various physical…

The asymmetric switch process is a binary stochastic process that alternates between the values one and minus one, where the distributions of the time in these states may differ. Two versions of the process are considered: a non-stationary…
Finite mixtures of matrix normal distributions are a powerful tool for classifying three-way data in unsupervised problems. The distribution of each component is assumed to be a matrix variate normal density. The mixture model can be…
We derive the form of the variance-covariance matrix for any affine equivariant matrix-valued statistics when sampling from complex elliptical distributions. We then use this result to derive the variance-covariance matrix of the sample…
Some inequalities for positive linear maps on matrix algebras are given, especially asymmetric extensions of Kadison's inequality and several operator versions of Chebyshev's inequality. We also discuss well-known results around the matrix…
Several distributions are studied, simultaneously in the real, complex, quaternion and octonion cases. Specifically, these are the central, nonsingular matricvariate and matrix multivariate T and beta type II distributions and the joint…
In the past 20 years, the study of real eigenvalues of non-symmetric real random matrices has seen important progress. Notwithstanding, central questions still remain open, such as the characterization of their asymptotic statistics and the…
We consider the problem of testing whether a multivariate distribution is axially symmetric about some unknown direction. Under a simple-spectrum assumption on the covariance matrix, any symmetry axis must coincide with an eigenvector of…
We provide finite-sample distribution approximations, that are uniform in the parameter, for inference in linear mixed models. Focus is on variances and covariances of random effects in cases where existing theory fails because their…
