A decomposition for a stochastic matrix with an application to MANOVA. (English) Zbl 1065.62101

Summary: The aim of this paper is to propose a simple method in order to evaluate the (approximate) distribution of matrix quadratic forms when Wishartness conditions do not hold. The method is based upon a factorization of a general Gaussian stochastic matrix as a special linear combination of nonstochastic matrices with the standard Gaussian matrix. An application of previous results is proposed for matrix quadratic forms arising in MANOVA for a multivariate split-plot design with circular dependence structure.
