A note on the scalar Haffian.

Heinz Neudecker (2000)

Qüestiió

In this note a uniform transparent presentation of the scalar Haffian will be given. Some well-known results will be generalized. A link will be established between the scalar Haffian and the derivative matrix as developed by Magnus and Neudecker.

On Boman's theorem on partial regularity of mappings

Tejinder S. Neelon (2011)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Let Λ n × m and k be a positive integer. Let f : n m be a locally bounded map such that for each ( ξ , η ) Λ , the derivatives D ξ j f ( x ) : = d j d t j f ( x + t ξ ) | t = 0 , j = 1 , 2 , k , exist and are continuous. In order to conclude that any such map f is necessarily of class C k it is necessary and sufficient that Λ be not contained in the zero-set of a nonzero homogenous polynomial Φ ( ξ , η ) which is linear in η = ( η 1 , η 2 , , η m ) and homogeneous of degree k in ξ = ( ξ 1 , ξ 2 , , ξ n ) . This generalizes a result of J. Boman for the case k = 1 . The statement and the proof of a theorem of Boman for the case k = is also extended...

The Lukacs-Olkin-Rubin theorem without invariance of the "quotient"

Konstancja Bobecka, Jacek Wesołowski (2002)

Studia Mathematica

The Lukacs theorem is one of the most brilliant results in the area of characterizations of probability distributions. First, because it gives a deep insight into the nature of independence properties of the gamma distribution; second, because it uses beautiful and non-trivial mathematics. Originally it was proved for probability distributions concentrated on (0,∞). In 1962 Olkin and Rubin extended it to matrix variate distributions. Since that time it has been believed that the fundamental reason...
