Corallary)
If X∼Nn(μ,Σ), then AX⊥⊥BX<=>AΣBT=0
∵
Note that (AXBX)=(AB)X∼Normal
AX⊥⊥BX<=>Cov(AX,BX)=AΣBT=0

Relationship with χ2 distribution
Theorem)
Let X∼Nn(μ,Σ) with μ∈Rn, Σ: n×n positive definite matrix
Then, Y=(X−μ)TΣ−1(X−μ)∼χn2
∵
Since X≡dΣ1/2Z+μ,Y=(X−μ)TΣ−1/2Σ−1/2(X−μ)=ZTZ=∑iZi2∼χn2
Theorem) Distribution of quadratic form
Suppose Z∼Nn(0,In) and A∈Rn×n is symmetric
