Keywords: High dimensional data ; Equal covariance matrices
Abstract:

A test for the equality of the two covariance matrices is proposed. The asymptotic normal distribution used for the test, as both the sample sizes and the number of variables go to infinity, is obtained. The test can be used in the situations where the number of variables is much larger than the sample sizes.
