On the expectation of the product of four matrix-valued Gaussian random variables

The formula for the expectation of the product of four scalar real Gaussian random variables is generalized to matrix-valued (real or complex) Gaussian random variables. As an application of the extended formula, a simple derivation is presented of the covariance matrix of instrumental variable estimates of parameters in multivariable regression models. >
