Abstract
SUMMARY This paper is concerned with the characterization of the variance covariance matrix for a normal family in which certain quadratic forms are independent and follow cχ 2 distributions. It is also proved that the necessary and sufficient condition for any quadratic or linear form to be distributed independently of a sum of a finite number of non-negative definite quadratic forms is that it is distributed independently of each one of them.
