Abstract

We provide a new, concise derivation of necessary and sufficient conditions for a real matrix-normally distributed matrix X and we characterize the general matrix-normal covariance structure such that, given the symmetric positive-semidefinite matrices Ai, i = 1,2,...,m, the matrix quadratic forms X ′ A i X ${\textbf {X}}^{\prime }{\textbf {A}}_{i}{\textbf {X}}$ are distributed as independent noncentral Wishart matrices.
