Abstract We consider the problems of computing the power and exponential moments EXs and EetX of square Gaussian random matrices X=A+BWC for positive integer s and real t, where W is a standard normal random vector and A, B, C are appropriately dimensioned constant matrices. We solve the problems by a matrix product scalarization technique and interpret the solutions in system-theoretic terms. The results of the paper are applicable to Bayesian prediction in multivariate autoregressive time series and mean-reverting diffusion processes.

Additional Notes The paper provides a system-theoretic algorithm to exactly compute the moments of Gaussian random matrices arising in Bayesian forecasting of multivariate autoregressive time series and mean-reverting stochastic diffusion processes relevant to Econometrics and Adaptive Control. The statistical computing problem had previously been solved only approximately by Monte-Carlo simulations. H.B.Thompson was the CI of an ARC grant under which I.Vladimirov was employed.
