Singular matrix variate Birnbaum-Saunders distribution under elliptical models

Abstract

This work sets the matrix variate Birnbaum-Saunders theory in the context of singular distributions and elliptical models. The so termed singular matrix variate generalised Birnbaum-Saunders distribution is obtained with respect the Hausdorff measure. Several basic properties and particular cases of this distribution are also derived.
