Matrix-variate distribution theory under elliptical models. IV: Joint distribution of latent roots of covariance matrix and the largest and smallest latent roots. (English) Zbl 1333.62143

The object of this paper is a generalization of the classical work on distributions of the latent roots of a sample covariance matrix under the case of elliptical models. The author derives the distributions of the largest and smallest latent roots from a sample covariance matrix under an elliptical model.
In the same time he also “corrects some erroneous results concerning zonal polynomials present in the literature”.
