$R_{G}\left(x,y,z\right)$ and $R_{F}\left(x,y,z\right)$ occur as the expectation values, relative to a normal probability distribution in ${\mathbb{R}}^{2}$ or ${\mathbb{R}}^{3}$ , of the square root or reciprocal square root of a quadratic form. More generally, let $\mathbf{A}$ ( $=[a_{r,s}]$ ) and $\mathbf{B}$ ( $=[b_{r,s}]$ ) be real positive-definite matrices with $n$ rows and $n$ columns, and let $\lambda_{1},\dots,\lambda_{n}$ be the eigenvalues of $\mathbf{A}\mathbf{B}^{-1}$ . If $\mathbf{x}$ is a column vector with elements $x_{1},x_{2},\dots,x_{n}$ and transpose $\mathbf{x}^{\mathrm{T}}$ , then

§19.16(iii) shows that for $n=3$ the incomplete cases of $R_{F}$ and $R_{G}$ occur when $\mu=-1/2$ and $\mu=1/2$ , respectively, while their complete cases occur when $n=2$ .
