beta function, extended beta function, extended matrix variate beta distri- bution, extended gamma function, gamma function, matrix argument, zonal polynomial.Abstract
In this article, we define and study generalized forms of extended matrix variate gamma and beta functions. By using a number of results from matrix algebra, special functions of matrix arguments and zonal polynomials we derive a number of properties of these newly defined functions. We also give some applications of these functions to statistical distribution theory.
