Consider the following Wishart distribution
$$
f({\bf W}) = \frac{ |{\bf W}|^{(n-p-1)/2} \exp\big[-\frac{1}{2}\text{tr}({\bf V}^{-1}{\bf W} ) \big] }{2^{np/2} |{\bf V}| \Gamma_p(\frac{n}{2})} \tag{1}

Distribute Monte Carlo samples among dimensions
Simplified problem: Given a $d$-times nested convolution of an input function $g(x):\mathbb{R}\mapsto \mathbb{R}$ with the same band-limited smooth function $f(x):\mathbb{R}\mapsto \mathbb{R}$. I am ...
