On a distance between estimable functions.

Concepción Arenas Solá (1989)

Qüestiió

Similarity:

In this paper we study the main properties of a distance introduced by C.M. Cuadras (1974). This distance is a generalization of the well-known Mahalanobis distance between populations to a distance between parametric estimable functions inside the multivariate analysis of variance model. Reduction of dimension properties, invariant properties under linear automorphisms, estimation of the distance, distribution under normality as well as the interpretation as a geodesic distance are...

Explicit solutions for Sturm-Liouville operator problems (II).

Lucas Jódar Sánchez (1987)

Stochastica

Similarity:

It is proved that the resolution problem of a Sturm-Liouville operator problem for a second-order differential operator equation with constant coefficients is solved in terms of solutions of the corresponding algebraic operator equation. Existence and uniqueness conditions for the existence of nontrivial solutions of the problem and explicit expressions of them are given.

An algebraic approach for solving boundary value matrix problems: existence, uniqueness and closed form solutions.

Lucas A. Jódar Sanchez (1988)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

Similarity:

In this paper we show that in an analogous way to the scalar case, the general solution of a non homogeneous second order matrix differential equation may be expressed in terms of the exponential functions of certain matrices related to the corresponding characteristic algebraic matrix equation. We introduce the concept of co-solution of an algebraic equation of the type X^2 + A1.X + A0 = 0, that allows us to obtain a method of the variation of the parameters for the matrix case and...

Explicit solutions for non homogeneous Sturm-Liouville operators problems.

Lucas Jódar Sánchez (1989)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

In this paper we study existence and sufficiency conditions for the solutions of Sturm-Liouville operator problems related to the operator differential equation X'' - QX = F(t). Explicit solutions of the problem in terms of a square root of the operator Q are given.

A survey on continuous elliptical vector distributions.

Eusebio Gómez, Miguel A. Gómez-Villegas, J. Miguel Marín (2003)

Revista Matemática Complutense

Similarity:

In this paper it is taken up a revision and characterization of the class of absolutely continuous elliptical distributions upon a parameterization based on the density function. Their properties (probabilistic characteristics, affine transformations, marginal and conditional distributions and regression) are shown in a practical and easy to interpret way. Two examples are fully undertaken: the multivariate double exponential distribution and the multivariate uniform distribution. ...

A generalization of Wishart density for the case when the inverse of the covariance matrix is a band matrix

Kryštof Eben (1994)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

In a multivariate normal distribution, let the inverse of the covariance matrix be a band matrix. The distribution of the sufficient statistic for the covariance matrix is derived for this case. It is a generalization of the Wishart distribution. The distribution may be used for unbiased density estimation and construction of classification rules.

Construction of multivariate distributions: a review of some recent results.

José María Sarabia, Emilio Gómez-Déniz (2008)

SORT

Similarity:

The construction of multivariate distributions is an active field of research in theoretical and applied statistics. In this paper some recent developments in this field are reviewed. Specifically, we study and review the following set of methods: (a) Construction of multivariate distributions based on order statistics, (b) Methods based on mixtures, (c) Conditionally specified distributions, (d) Multivariate skew distributions, (e) Distributions based on the method of the variables...
