§35.11 Tables
Tables of zonal polynomials are given in James (1964) for | κ | 6 , Parkhurst and James (1974) for | κ | 12 , and Muirhead (1982, p. 238) for | κ | 5 . Each table expresses the zonal polynomials as linear combinations of monomial symmetric functions.

    4: 35.10 Methods of Computation
    For small values of 𝐓 the zonal polynomial expansion given by (35.8.1) can be summed numerically. … Koev and Edelman (2006) utilizes combinatorial identities for the zonal polynomials to develop computational algorithms for approximating the series expansion (35.8.1). …
    5: 35.9 Applications
    In chemistry, Wei and Eichinger (1993) expresses the probability density functions of macromolecules in terms of generalized hypergeometric functions of matrix argument, and develop asymptotic approximations for these density functions. In the nascent area of applications of zonal polynomials to the limiting probability distributions of symmetric random matrices, one of the most comprehensive accounts is Rains (1998).
