Published online by Cambridge University Press:  14 February 2012

Affiliation:
Queen's College, Dundee.

Synopsis

Using a technique due to Macbeath (Jack and Macbeath 1959) this paper gives what the author hopes is a shorter and easier presentation of the evaluation of certain Jacobians of matrix transformations which have occurred in statistics and the theory of quadratic forms.
