Abstract
We are considered with three different types of multivariate chi-square distributions. Their members play important roles as limiting distributions of vectors of test statistics in several applications of multiple hypotheses testing. We explain these applications and provide formulas for computing multiplicity-adjusted $p$-values under the respective global hypothesis.
