We consider the set Bp of parametric block correlation matrices with p blocks of various (and possibly different) sizes, whose diagonal blocks are compound symmetry (CS) correlation matrices and off-diagonal blocks are constant matrices. Such matrices appear in probabilistic models on categorical data, when the levels are partitioned in p groups, assuming a constant correlation within a group and a constant correlation for each pair of groups. We obtain two necessary and sufficient conditions for positive definiteness of elements of Bp. Firstly we consider the block average map $phi$, consisting in replacing a block by its mean value. We prove that for any A $in$ Bp , A is positive definite if and only if $phi$(A) is positive definite. Hence it is equivalent to check the validity of the covariance matrix of group means, which only depends on the number of groups and not on their sizes. This theorem can be extended to a wider set of block matrices. Secondly, we consider the subset of Bp for which the between group correlation is the same for all pairs of groups. Positive definiteness then comes down to find the positive definite interval of a matrix pencil on Sp. We obtain a simple characterization by localizing the roots of the determinant with within group correlation values.
Statistical inferences for sample correlation matrices are important in high dimensional data analysis. Motivated by this, this paper establishes a new central limit theorem (CLT) for a linear spectral statistic (LSS) of high dimensional sample corre
Sample correlation matrices are employed ubiquitously in statistics. However, quite surprisingly, little is known about their asymptotic spectral properties for high-dimensional data, particularly beyond the case of null models for which the data is
In this paper, we analyse singular values of a large $ptimes n$ data matrix $mathbf{X}_n= (mathbf{x}_{n1},ldots,mathbf{x}_{nn})$ where the column $mathbf{x}_{nj}$s are independent $p$-dimensional vectors, possibly with different distributions. Such d
The concordance signature of a multivariate continuous distribution is the vector of concordance probabilities for margins of all orders; it underlies the bivariate and multivariate Kendalls tau measure of concordance. It is shown that every attainab
Chatterjee (2021) introduced a simple new rank correlation coefficient that has attracted much recent attention. The coefficient has the unusual appeal that it not only estimates a population quantity first proposed by Dette et al. (2013) that is zer
