Abstract

We define and study multivariate and matrix variate skew Pearson type VII and skew t-distributions. We derive the marginal and conditional distributions, the linear transformation, and the stochastic representations of the multivariate and matrix variate skew Pearson type VII distributions and skew t-distributions. Also, we study the limiting distributions.
