SimCovDiagN: Simulate Diagonal Covariance Matrices from the Multivariate Normal Distribution

Description

This function simulates random diagonal covariance matrices from the multivariate normal distribution. The function ensures that the generated covariance matrices are positive semi-definite.

Usage

SimCovDiagN(n, sigma_diag, vcov_sigma_diag_l)

Value

Returns a list of random diagonal covariance matrices.

Arguments

n

Positive integer. Number of replications.

sigma_diag

Numeric matrix. The covariance matrix (\(\boldsymbol{\Sigma}\)).

vcov_sigma_diag_l

Numeric matrix. Cholesky factorization (t(chol(vcov_sigma_vech))) of the sampling variance-covariance matrix of \(\mathrm{vech} \left( \boldsymbol{\Sigma} \right)\).
