چکیده

Abstract: We consider small factor analysis models with one or two factors. Fixing the number of factors, we prove a finiteness result about the covariance matrix parameter space when the size of the covariance matrix increases. According to this result, there exists a distinguished matrix size starting at which one can determine whether a given covariance matrix belongs to the parameter space by determining whether all principal submatrices of the distinguished size belong to the corresponding parameter space. We show that the distinguished matrix size is equal to four in the one-factor model and six with two factors.

Spectral density of the correlation matrix of factor models: a random matrix theory approach.

We studied the eigenvalue spectral density of the correlation matrix of factor models of multivariate time series. By making use of the random matrix theory, we analytically quantified the effect of statistical uncertainty on the spectral density due to the finiteness of the sample. We considered a broad range of models, ranging from one-factor models to hierarchical multifactor models.

Some Results on Baer's Theorem

Baer has shown that, for a group G, finiteness of G=Zi(G) implies finiteness of ɣi+1(G). In this paper we will show that the converse is true provided that G=Zi(G) is finitely generated. In particular, when G is a finite nilpotent group we show that |G=Zi(G)| divides |ɣi+1(G)|d′ i(G), where d′i(G) =(d( G /Zi(G)))i.

ABSTRACT. Let R be a commutative noetherian ring, I and J are two ideals of R. Inthis paper we introduce the concept of (I;J)- minimax R- module, and it is shown thatif M is an (I;J)- minimax R- module and t a non-negative integer such that HiI;J(M) is(I;J)- minimax for all i
