As can be seen from the long list of contributions, Götz has had and still has an enormous range of interests, and colleagues to share these interests with. He is a leading expert in linear models with a particular focus on matrix algebra in its relation to statistics. He has published in almost all major statistics and matrix theoryjournals.Hisresearchactivitiesalsoincludeotherareas(likenonparametrics, statistics and sports, combination of forecasts and magic squares, just to mention afew). GötzTrenklerwasborninDresdenin1943.AfterhisschoolyearsinEastGer- manyandWest-Berlin,heobtainedaDiplomainMathematicsfromFreeUniversity of Berlin (1970), where he also discovered his interest in Mathematical Statistics. In1973,hecompletedhisPh.D.withathesistitled:Onadistance-generatingfunc- tion of probability measures. He then moved on to the University of Hannover to becomeLecturerandtowriteahabilitation-thesis(submitted1979)onalternatives totheOrdinaryLeastSquaresestimatorintheLinearRegressionModel,atopicthat wouldbecomehispredominantfieldofresearchintheyearstocome.

Description:
This unique collection of essays extends the frontiers of knowledge in econometrics as well as classical fields of statistical inference. Among others, it presents advances in stochastic processes, in the design of experiments and in the analysis of variance. Moreover, several papers on modern matri
