Kshirsagar–Tan independence property of beta matrices and related characterizations

Abstract: A new independence property of univariate beta distributions, related to the results of Kshirsagar and Tan for beta matrices, is presented. Conversely, a characterization of univariate beta laws through this independence property is proved. A related characterization of a family of 2 × 2 random matrices including beta matrices is also obtained. The main technical challenge was a problem involving the solution of a related functional equation.

“…Similar characterization of beta distribution for random matrices was proved under numerous additional assumptions in [6]. The characterization of 2 × 2 matrix-variate beta distribution was also given by [2], but the characterization condition was of a different nature.…”
