Abstract

This is an advanced introduction to the various types of normal random variables, with most of the needed preliminaries included. We first discuss the probability basics, standard central limits, and the theory of the usual, real normal variables, with examples, illustrations and numerous formulae. Then we go on a similar discussion regarding the complex normal variables, and the Rayleigh variables too. We then move to arbitrary dimensions, with a discussion regarding the Gaussian vectors, and related probability laws, featuring some functional analysis, and geometry and physics too. Finally, we provide an introduction to the quantum versions of the normal variables, and notably to those coming from free probability and random matrices.
