چکیده
— In this paper, we consider the problem of deriving new eigenvalue distributions of real-valued Wishart matrices that arises in many scientific and engineering applications. The distributions are derived using the tools from the theory of skew symmetric matrices. In particular, we relate the multiple integrals of a determinant, which arises while finding the eigenvalue distributions, in terms of the Pfaffian of skew-symmetric matrices. Pfaffians being the square root of skew symmetric matrices are easy to compute than the conventional distributions that involve Zonal polynomials or beta integrals. We show that the plots of the derived distributions are exactly coinciding with the numerically simulated plots.

Asymptotic distributions of Neumann problem for Sturm-Liouville equation
In this paper we apply the Homotopy perturbation method to derive the higher-order asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions associated with the linear real second order equation of Sturm-liouville type on $[0,pi]$ with Neumann conditions $(y'(0)=y'(pi)=0)$ where $q$ is a real-valued Sign-indefinite number of $C^{1}[0,pi]$ and $lambda$ is a real parameter.
متن کاملComparative Study of Random Matrices Capability in Uncertainty Detection of Pier’s Dynamics
Because of random nature of many dependent variables in coastal engineering, treatment of effective parameters is generally associated with uncertainty. Numerical models are often used for dynamic analysis of complex structures, including mechanical systems. Furthermore, deterministic models are not sufficient for exact anticipation of structure’s dynamic response, but probabilistic models...
متن کاملThe Asymptotic Form of Eigenvalues for a Class of Sturm-Liouville Problem with One Simple Turning Point
The purpose of this paper is to study the higher order asymptotic distributions of the eigenvalues associated with a class of Sturm-Liouville problem with equation of the form w??=(?2f(x)?R(x)) (1), on [a,b, where ? is a real parameter and f(x) is a real valued function in C2(a,b which has a single zero (so called turning point) at point 0x=x and R(x) is a continuously differentiable function. ...
متن کاملAccuracy of the Tracy-Widom limit for the largest eigenvalue in white Wishart matrices
Let A be a p-variate real Wishart matrix on n degrees of freedom with identity covariance. The distribution of the largest eigenvalue in A has important applications in multivariate statistics. Consider the asymptotics when p grows in proportion to n, it is known from Johnstone (2001) that after centering and scaling, these distributions approach the orthogonal Tracy-Widom law for real-valued d...
متن کاملThe pseudo-Wishart distribution and its application to MIMO systems
The pseudo-Wishart distribution arises when a Hermitian matrix generated from a complex Gaussian ensemble is not full-rank. It plays an important role in the analysis of communication systems using diversity in Rayleigh fading. However, it has not been extensively studied like the Wishart distribution. Here, we derive some key aspects of the complex pseudo-Wishart distribution. Pseudo-Wishart a...
