On the Exact Distribution of the Smallest Root of the Wishart Matrix Using Zonal Polynomials,

Abstract

The authors gave an expression for the density of the smallest root of the Wishart matrix in terms of the zonal polynomials when m = (n-p-1)/2 is an integer; here p denotes the number of variates and n is the degrees of freedom. (Author)
