In this paper, we want to show the Restricted Wishart distribution is equivalent to the LKJ
distribution, which is one way to specify a uniform distribution from the space of positive
definite correlation matrices. Based on this theorem, we propose a new method to generate
random correlation matrices from the LKJ distribution. This new method is faster than the
original onion method for generating random matrices, especially in the low dimension ($ T<
120$) situation.
