Elliptically contoured distributions can be considered to be the distributions for which the contours of the density functions are proportional ellipsoids. We generalize elliptically contoured densities to ``star-shaped distributions with concentric star-shaped contours and show that many results in the former case continue to hold in the more general case. We develop a general theory in the framework of abstract group invariance so that the results can be applied to other cases as well, especially those involving random matrices.

Elliptically contoured distributions generalize the multivariate normal distributions in such a way that the density generators need not be exponential. However, as the name suggests, elliptically contoured distributions remain to be restricted in th at the similar density contours ought to be elliptical. Kamiya, Takemura and Kuriki [Star-shaped distributions and their generalizations, Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference 138 (2008), 3429--3447] proposed star-shaped distributions, for which the density contours are allowed to be boundaries of arbitrary similar star-shaped sets. In the present paper, we propose a nonparametric estimator of the shape of the density contours of star-shaped distributions, and prove its strong consistency with respect to the Hausdorff distance. We illustrate our estimator by simulation.
Elliptically contoured distributions can be considered to be the distributions for which the contours of the density functions are proportional ellipsoids. Kamiya, Takemura and Kuriki (2006) generalized the elliptically contoured distributions to sta r-shaped distributions, for which the contours are allowed to be arbitrary proportional star-shaped sets. This was achieved by considering the so-called orbital decomposition of the sample space in the general framework of group invariance. In the present paper, we extend their results by conducting the orbital decompositions in steps and obtaining a further, hierarchical decomposition of the sample space. This allows us to construct probability models and distributions with further independence structures. The general results are applied to the star-shaped distributions with a certain symmetric structure, the distributions related to the two-sample Wishart problem and the distributions of preference rankings.

A (p-1)-variate integral representation is given for the cumulative distribution function of the general p-variate non-central gamma distribution with a non-centrality matrix of any admissible rank. The real part of products of well known analytical functions is integrated over arguments from (-pi,pi). To facilitate the computation, these formulas are given more detailed for p=2 and p=3. These (p-1)-variate integrals are also derived for the diagonal of a non-central complex Wishart Matrix. Furthermore, some alternative formulas are given for the cases with an associated one-factorial (pxp)-correlation matrix R, i.e. R differs from a suitable diagonal matrix only by a matrix of rank 1, which holds in particular for all (3x3)-R with no vanishing correlation.

We introduce new shape-constrained classes of distribution functions on R, the bi-$s^*$-concave classes. In parallel to results of Dumbgen, Kolesnyk, and Wilke (2017) for what they called the class of bi-log-concave distribution functions, we show th at every $s$-concave density $f$ has a bi-$s^*$-concave distribution function $F$ for $s^*leq s/(s+1)$. Confidence bands building on existing nonparametric bands, but accounting for the shape constraint of bi-$s^*$-concavity, are also considered. The new bands extend those developed by Dumbgen et al. (2017) for the constraint of bi-log-concavity. We also make connections between bi-$s^*$-concavity and finiteness of the CsorgH{o} - Revesz constant of $F$ which plays an important role in the theory of quantile processes.
