摘要
For a class of multivariate skew normal distributions, the noncentral skew chi-square distribution is Studied. The necessary and sufficient conditions under which a sequence of quadratic forms is generalized noncentral skew chi-square distributed random variables are obtained. Several examples are given to illustrate the results. (c) 2008 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
