MomCumMVt: Moments and cumulants Multivariate t-Student distribution

Description

The t- distribution is defined as $$\mathbf{X} = \sqrt{\frac{p}{S^2}} \mathbf{Z}$$ where \(\mathbf{Z}\) is a multivariate standard-normal random vector and \(S^2\) is a \(\chi^2_p\). random variable independent of \(\mathbf{Z}\).

Usage

MomCumMVt(p, d, r, nCum = FALSE)

Value

The list of moments (or cumulants) in vector form

Arguments

p

degrees of freedom

d

dimension

r

highest order of moments and cumulants

nCum

if it is TRUE then cumulants are calculated
