What is the second moment of the conditional distribution of one multivariate normal variable given another multivariate normal variable? I know the formula for the second central moment (the variance), but the second moment is hard to find online.
$$\int_{x=-\infty}^{x=\infty} xx'f(x\vert y)dx$$
In my case, the marginal and conditional means and variances are known.
For two multivariate normal vectors $\mathbf{x}\sim\mathcal N(\mathbf{\mu_x},\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,x}})$ and $\mathbf{Y}\sim\mathcal N(\mathbf{\mu_Y},\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}})$ we have that, given their covariance $\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}$:
$$E[\mathbf x|\mathbf Y]=\mathbf{\mu_x}+\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}}^{-1}(\mathbf{Y-\mu_Y})$$
$$\text{Var}[\mathbf x|\mathbf Y]=\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,x}}-\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}}^{-1}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,x}}$$
But the covariance is given in terms of the second moment:
$$\text{Var}[\mathbf x|\mathbf Y]=E[\mathbf {xx}^T|\mathbf Y]-E[\mathbf x|\mathbf Y]E[\mathbf {x}^T|\mathbf Y]$$
So
$$E[\mathbf {xx}^T|\mathbf Y] = \text{Var}[\mathbf x|\mathbf Y] + E[\mathbf x|\mathbf Y]E[\mathbf {x}^T|\mathbf Y]\\ =\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,x}}-\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}}^{-1}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,x}}+ (\mathbf{\mu_x}+\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}}^{-1}(\mathbf{Y-\mu_Y})) (\mathbf{\mu_x}+\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}}^{-1}(\mathbf{Y-\mu_Y}))^T$$
I haven't checked, but it seems this all stems from the simple fact that:
$$\mathbf x=\mathbf{\mu_x}+\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}}^{-1}(\mathbf{Y-\mu_Y})+\mathbf e\\ E[\mathbf {xx}^T|\mathbf Y]=(\mathbf{\mu_x}+\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}}^{-1}(\mathbf{Y-\mu_Y}))(\mathbf{\mu_x}+\Sigma_{\mathbf{x,Y}}\Sigma_{\mathbf{Y,Y}}^{-1}(\mathbf{Y-\mu_Y}))^T+E[\mathbf {ee}^T|\mathbf Y] $$
So we could've started directly here, and then $E[\mathbf {ee}^T|\mathbf Y] = \text{Var}[\mathbf x|\mathbf Y]$.
