Goodman [1] has pointed out the applications of the distributional results of the complex multivariate normal statistical analysis. Khatri [4], has suggested the maximum latent root statistic for testing the reality of a covariance matrix. The joint distribution of the latent roots under certain null hypotheses can be written as, [2], [3],
