TLDR
In this paper, the asymptotic distribution of the characteristic roots and vectors of one Wishart matrix in the metric of another as the two degrees of freedom increase in fixed proportion is obtained.
Abstract
The asymptotic distribution of the characteristic roots and vectors of one Wishart matrix in the metric of another as the two degrees of freedom increase in fixed proportion is obtained. In the balanced one-way multivariate analysis of variance these two matrices are the sample effect and error covariance matrices, and the numbers of degrees of freedom are (approximately) proportional to the number of classes. The maximum likelihood estimate of the effect covariance matrix of a given rank depends on the characteristic roots and vectors.

TL;DR: In this article, a relatively obscure eigenvalue inequality due to Wielandt is used to give a simple derivation of the asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues of a random symmetric matrix.

A bibliography on variance components an introduction and an update: 1984-2002

TL;DR: In particular, the study of variance through a class of linear models known as random and mixed models is a central topic in statistics with wide ramifications in both theory and applications as discussed by the authors.

Asymptotic properties of eigenmatrices of a large sample covariance matrix

TL;DR: This result provides further evidence in support of the conjecture that the distribution of the eigenmatrix of $S_n$ is asymptotically close to that of a Haar-distributed unitary matrix.

Testing dimensionality in the multivariate analysis of variance

TL;DR: In this article, the problem of testing the dimension of the effect space is treated, and the test statistic is shown to have the same asymptotic null distribution as that for the balanced random effect model.

Asymptotic theory for principal component analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the asymptotic distribution of the characteristic roots and vectors of a sample covariance matrix is given when the observations are from a multivariate normal distribution whose covariance matrices has characteristic roots of arbitrary multiplicity.
