Abstract

Positive definite matrix functions on spheres arise naturally in multivariate approximation and spatial statistics. The construction of strictly positive definite models has become one of the most important goals for the analysis and study of vector valued random fields on spheres. This paper derives strictly positive definite models based on hypergeometric functions. In statistical nomenclature, it describes strictly positive definite covariance functions of stationary, isotropic and mean square continuous Gaussian vector random fields on spheres in which the isotropic part of the covariance functions are set through hypergeometric functions.
