The problem of estimating the mean of a multivariate normal distribution is considered. A class of admissible minimax estimators is constructed. This class includes two well-known classes of estimators, Strawderman's and Alam's. Further, this class is much broader than theirs.

The problem of estimating a mean vector of scale mixtures of multivariate normal distributions with the quadratic loss function is considered. For a certain class of these distributions, which includes at least multivariate-t distributions, admissible minimax estimators are given.

For estimating under squared-error loss the mean of a p-variate normal distribution when this mean lies in a ball of radius m centered at the origin and the covariance matrix is equal to the identity matrix, it is shown that the Bayes estimator with respect to a uniformly distributed prior on the bo
