A characterization of spherical distributions

Author

Listed:
  • Eaton, Morris L.

Abstract

It is shown that when the random vector X in Rn has a mean and when the conditional expectation E(u'Xv'X) = 0 for all vectors u, v [set membership, variant] Rn which satisfy u'v = 0, then the distribution of X is orthogonally invariant. A version of this characterization is also established when X does not have a mean vector.
