Abstract

Moments of the complex multivariate normal distribution are obtained by differentiating its characteristic function, applying the differential operators for the differentiation of functions of complex vectors. A recurrence relation for the derivatives of the characteristic function is derived, and explicit expressions for the moments are obtained. Moments up to order 6 are expressed in terms of Hermitian matrices. Moments of Hermitian quadratic forms up to order 3 are also obtained.
