Probability density of a hyperplane for a Gaussian distribution
I have a vector $\mathbf{x}$ with a multivariate Gaussian distribution
$$P[\textbf{x}\in S]
=\int_{\textbf{x}\in S}
\det(2\pi H^{-1})^{-1/2}\exp(-\frac{1}{2} \textbf{x}^T H\textbf{x}) \, d\textbf{x}$$...

The monotonicity of the bivariate normal with non-isotropic covariance
Let $Y = (Y_1, Y_2) \sim N(0, 11^T + I)$, be a bivariate normal random variable with non-isotropic covariance.
Define $y = (y_1, y_2)$ and let
\begin{align}
F_{\delta}(y) = \Pr[Y_1 > y_1 - \delta, ...
