In this article, we derive a new covariance estimate. The estimate has a similar structure as the Brascamp-Lieb inequality and is optimal for ferromagnetic Gaussian measures. It can be naturally applied to deduce decay of correlations of…

We propose a new covariance matrix called Gini covariance matrix (GCM), which is a natural generalization of univariate Gini mean difference (GMD) to the multivariate case. The extension is based on the covariance representation of GMD by…

We derive an analytical formula for the covariance $\mathrm{Cov}(A,B)$ of two smooth linear statistics $A=\sum_i a(\lambda_i)$ and $B=\sum_i b(\lambda_i)$ to leading order for $N\to\infty$, where $\{\lambda_i\}$ are the $N$ real eigenvalues…

We derive the distribution of the ratio of a non-central mean matrix and a sample covariance matrix. This aligns with the confluent term ${}_1F_1$ in the non-central uni-variate Student's $t$. Some extensions of matrix-variate distributions…
