It is assumed that the reader has had adequate exposure to basic concepts in Probability, Statistics, Calculus and Linear Algebra. This chapter provides a brief review of the results that will be needed in the remainder of this book. No detailed discussion of these topics will be attempted. For essential materials in these areas, the reader is, for instance, referred to Mathai and Haubold (2017a, 2017b). Some properties of vectors, matrices, determinants, Jacobians and wedge product of differentials to be utilized later on, are included in the present chapter. For the sake of completeness, we initially provide some elementary definitions. First, the concepts of vectors, matrices and determinants are introduced.
