Introduction ‘The classical examples of multivariate and matrix Gamma distributions in the probability and statistics literature are not necessarily infinitely divisible [14,19,40}. These examples are analogous to one-dimensional Gamma distributions and are obtained by a direct generalisation of the one-dimensional probability densities; see for example [15,23,24]. Working in the domain of Fourier transforms, some infinitely divisible matrix Gamma distributions have recently been considered in [5,27]. Their Lévy measures are direct generalisations of the one-dimensional Gamma distribution. The work of [27] arose in the context of random matrix models relating classical and free infinitely divisible distributions. ‘The study of infinitely divisible random elements in cones has been considered in [4,25,26,31] and references therein. They are important in the construction and modelling of cone increasing Lévy processes. In the particular case of infinitely divisible positive-definite random matrices, their importance in applications has been recently highlighted in |7.8.25,29]. ‘This is due to the fact that infinite divisibility allows modelling by matrix Levy and Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes, which are in those papers used to model the time dynamics of ad x d covariance matrix to obtain a so-called stochastic volatility model (for observed series of financial data). Generalised Gamma Convolutions (GGC) is a rich and interesting class of one-dimensional infinitely divisible distribu- tions on the cone Ry = [0, 00).

This class was introduced by 0. Thorin in a series of papers and further studied by L. Bondesson in his book [10]. The book of Steutel and Van Harn [3¢] contains also many results and examples about GGC. Several well known and important distributions on &,. are GGC. The recent survey paper by James, Roynette and Yor [16] contains a number of classical results and old and new examples of GGC. The multivariate case was considered in Barndorff-Nielsen, Maejima and Sato [3] There are three main purposes in this paper. We formulate and study multivariate and cone valued Gamma distributions which are infinitely divisible, Second, we consider and characterise the corresponding class GGC(K) of Generalised Gamma Convolutions on a finite dimensional cone x. Finally, we introduce a new example ofa positive definite random matrix with infinitely divisible Gamma distribution and with explicit Lévy measure. The main results and organisation of the paper are as follows. Section 2 briefly presents preliminaries on notation and results about one-dimensional GGC on 2, as well as some matrix notation. Section 3 introduces a class of infinitely divisible d-variate Gamma distributions (a, p). whose Lévy measures are analogous to the Lévy measure of the one-dimensional Gamma distribution. The parameters a and f are measures and functions on S (the unit sphere with respect to a prescribed norm), respectively. Itis shown that the distribution does not depend on the particular norm under consideration. The char- acteristic function is derived and it is shown that the Fourier-Laplace transform on C* exists if is bounded away from zero a- almost everywhere. Furthermore, the finiteness of moments of all orders is studied and some interesting examples exhibiting essential differences to univariate Gamma distributions are given, Section 4 considers cone valued Gamma distributions and their corresponding class GGC(K) of Generalised Gamma Convolutions on a cone X,, defined as the smallest class of distributions on K which is closed under convolution and weak convergence and contains all the so-called elementary Gamma variables in K (and also all Gamma random variables in K in our new definition). This class is characterised as the stochastic integral of a non-random function with respect to the Poisson random measure of the jumps of a Gamma Lévy process on the cone. This isa new representation in the multivariate case extending the Wiener-Gamma integral characterisation of one-dimensional GGC on Ry = [0, 0), as considered, for example, in {16}. Section 5 considers the special cone valued case of infinitely divisible positive-semidefinite d x d matrix Gamma distributions. New examples are introduced via an explicit form of their Lévy measure. They include as particular cases the examples considered in [5,27], A detailed study is done of the new two parameter positive definite matrix distribution AL(), E), where 1) > (d~ 1)/2 and E is ad x d positive definite matrix. This special infinitely divisible Gamma matrix distribution has several modelling features similar to the classical (but non-infinitely divisible) matrix Gamma distribution defined through a density, in particular the Wishart distribution, Namely, moments of all orders exist, the matrix mean is proportional to and the matrix of covariances equals the second moment of the Wishart distribution. When 3 is the x d identity matrix L., the distribution is invariant under orthogonal conjugations and the trace of a random matrix M with distribution A/"(y, ly) has a one-dimensional Gamma distribution. A relation of the moments of the Marchenko-Pastur distribution with the asymptotic moments of the Lévy measure is exhibited. Hence, this matrix Gamma distribution has a special role when dealing with a random covariance matrix and its time dynamics, e.g. by specifying it as a matrix Lévy or Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. As an application, the matrix normal-Gamma distribution is introduced, which is a matrix extension of the one-dimensional variance Gamma distribution of [22] which is popular in finance. 2. Preliminaries For the general background in infinitely divisible distributions and Lévy processes we refer to the standard references, eg. [36] 2.1.

If B is constant, we call ja jl --homogeneous Fy(or, B)-distribution. Observe that the notation Fy(«, ) implicitly aso specifies which norm we use, because a isa measure on the unit sphere with respect to the norm employed and f is a function on it. The parameters a and fi play a comparable role as shape and scale parameters as in the usual positive univariate case. 158 V,Pez-Abreu,R Stele Journal of Multivariate Analysis 130 (2014) 155 Remark 32.

Allupcoming results immediately generalise to this matrix-variate setting, We provide further details in Section 5, Ifd = 1 and w({—1}) = 0, then we have the usual one-dimensional /*(a({1}), 6(1))-distribution. In general it is ele- ‘mentary to see that for d = 1 a random variable X ~ Fy(a, 8) if and only if X 2X, — Xp with X ~ Ma((1}), BA) and X ~ F(e({—1}), B(—1)) being two independent usual Gamma random variables, i.e. X has a bilateral Gamma distribution 238 analysed in [19,18] and introduced in [11,22] under the name variance Gamma distribution. If a(j1}) = a({—1}) and (1) = B(-1), itindeed can be represented as the variance mixture of a normal random variable with an independent pos- itive Gamma one (a comprehensive summary of this case can be found in [39] where it is called sym-Gamma distribution). Now we address the question which «, 6 we can take to obtain a Gamma distribution. Proposition 3.3. Let c be a finite measure on Spay and f: Sga.y > Ry a measurable function. Then (3.2) defines a Lévy measure v, and thus there exists a (a, 8) probably distribution [if and only if 1 in(14 aid) <0 35 [, : n( Bw ) a Moreover, fya( Ill 1)y,(dx) < 00 hols true.

Proposition 3.5. Any y(«, f)-distribution is self-decomposable, Proof. ‘This follows immediately from the definition and [36, Theorem 15.10]. Later on we will considerably improve this result by showing that we are in a very special subset ofthe self-decomposable distributions. This result has important implications for applications where one likes to work with distributions having densities, ie. distributions which are absolutely continuous (with respect to the Lebesgue measure) Proposition 3.6. Assume that supp is of full dimension, ie. that it contains d linearly independent vertors in R. Then the Talat, B) distribution is absolutely continuous. Proof. It is immediate that the support of (cr, f) is the closed convex cone generated by supp. Hence, the support of Ta(a, 6) is of full dimension and so the distribution is non-degenerate. Thus [35] concludes. ml Itfollows along the same lines that in the degenerate case the (a, 8)-distribution is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure on the subspace generated by supp «. If supp a consists of exactly d linearly independent vectors, Ta(at, ) equals the distribution of a linear transformation of a vector of d independent univariate Gamma random variables with appropriate parameters and thus the density can be calculated easily using the density transformation theorem with an invertible linear map. If suppa is a finite set of full dimension, one can calculate the density from the density of independent univariate Gamma random variables by using the density transformation theorem with an invertible linear ‘map and integrating out the non-relevant dimensions. In general the density can be determined via solving a partial integro- differential equation (see [37]). Moreover, criteria for qualitative properties of the density like continuity and continuous differentiability can be deduced from the results of (33.34). but looking at the simple case of a vector of independent univariate Gamma distributions one immediately sees that the sufficient conditions given there are far from being sharp. Therefore we refrain from giving more details. Next we show that our d-dimensional Gamma distribution has the same closedness properties regarding scaling and convolution as the usual univariate one. 160 V,Pez-Abreu,R Stele Journal of Multivariate Analysis 130 (2014) 155-175 Proposition 3.7.

Follows immediately from considering the characteristic functions. a Likewise itis immediate to see the following distributional properties of the induced Lévy process. Proposition 38. Let L be a g(a, 8) Lévy process, ie. Ly ~ Fy(u, ). Then Ly ~ y(t, 8) forall « Ry Of high importance for applications is that the class of Fy distributions is invariant under invertible linear transformations. Proposition 39.

Prez-Abreu,R Stele Journal of Multivariate Analysis 130 (2014) 155-175 161 Proof. Using Proposition 3.4 we can assume w.Lo.g. that the Euclidean norm [I - 2 is used for the definition of the Fy(at, B) distribution.

Finally, (3.14) and (3.15) follow from Example 25.12 in [36] and observing that the infinitely divisible distribution F(a, 6) with Fourier transform (3.1) has Lévy triplet (¢, 0, v,.), where yc). 0< Cy 182 V,Pez-Abreu,R Stele Journal of Multivariate Analysis 130 (2014) 155-175 Corollary 3.13. A || « ||-homogeneous F(a, B) distribution has an analytic Fourier-Laplace transform in Ba(O) and finite ‘moments of all orders. Hence, any homogeneous Gamma distribution behaves like one would expect it from the univariate case. However, the behaviour in the non-homogeneous case may be drastically different, as the following examples illustrate. Example 3.14, Consider d = 2. Leta be concentrated on {1)j}aex With vq = (sing '), cos(n')) and set e({v,}) = e" and A(v,) = 1/n for all n € N.

This implies also that GGC(K) is the smallest class of distributions closed under convolution and weak convergence containing all K-valued I distributions in the sense of Definition 4.1.
