Abstract
General saddlepoint approximations are derived for the distributions of statistics under an elliptical population. The technique is applied to obtain the tail probabilities of latent roots of a sample covariance matrix. It is shown that the method based on normalizing transformations by Tsuchiya and Konishi (1997) is efficient for the sample correlation coefficient in an elliptical sample.
