ABSTRACT

In this appendix we give some results in probability theory, matrix algebra, and analysis

that are essential in our treatment of statistics and that may not be treated in enough detail in

more specialized texts. Some of the material in this appendix, as well as extensions, can be

found in Anderson (1958), Billingsley (1995), Breiman (1968), Chung (1978), Dempster

(1969), Feller (1971), Loeve (1977), and Rao (1973).
