The genus statistics of isodensity contours has become a well-established tool in cosmology. In this Letter we place the genus in the wider framework of a complete family of morphological descriptors. These are known as the Minkowski…
We employ positivity of Riesz functionals to establish representing measures (or approximate representing measures) for truncated multivariate moment sequences. For a truncated moment sequence $y$, we show that $y$ lies in the closure of…
Matrix elements of spinor and principal series representations of the Lorentz group are studied in the basis of complex angular momentum (helicity basis). It is shown that matrix elements are expressed via hyperspherical functions…
We introduce and study the concept of generating function for natural elements in a Dedekind complete Riesz space equipped with a conditional expectatnion operator. This allows to study discrete processes in free-measure setting. In…
By using structural and asymptotic properties of the Kontorovich-Lebedev transform associated with Minkowski's question mark function, we give an affirmative answer to the question posed by R. Salem (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 53 (3), (1943),…
We study Minkowski contents and fractal curvatures of arbitrary self-similar tilings (constructed on a feasible open set of an IFS) and the general relations to the corresponding functionals for self-similar sets. In particular, we…
The discrete data encoded in the power moments of a positive measure, fast decaying at infinity on euclidean space, is incomplete for recovery, leading to the concept of moment indeterminateness. On the other hand, classical integral…
U-statistics of spatial point processes given by a density with respect to a Poisson process are investigated. In the first half of the paper general relations are derived for the moments of the functionals using kernels from the Wiener-Ito…
In this paper, we consider linear functionals defined on an unital commutative real algebra A and establish characterizations for moment functionals on compact sets of characters that depend only on the given functional. For example, we…
We introduce the "moment rank" and "unitary rank" of numerical sequences, close relatives of linear-recursive order. We show that both parameters can be characterized by a broad set of criteria involving moments of measures, types of…
Let $W$ be a random positive definite symmetric matrix distributed according to a real Wishart distribution and let $W^{-1}=(W^{ij})_{i,j}$ be its inverse matrix. We compute general moments $\mathbb{E} [W^{k_1 k_2} W^{k_3 k_4} ...…
Starting from the moment sequences of classical orthogonal polynomials we derive the orthogonality purely algebraically. We consider also the moments of ($q=1$) classical orthogonal polynomials, and study those cases in which the…
In this paper, the generating functions of Garvans so-called $k$-ranks are used, to define a family of mock Eisenstein series. The $k$-rank moments are then expressed as partition traces of these functions. We explore the modular properties…
It is well known that the behaviour of a branching process is completely described by the generating function of the offspring law and its fixed points. Branching random walks are a natural generalization of branching processes: a branching…
We study the joint probability generating function for $k$ occupancy numbers on disjoint intervals in the Bessel point process. This generating function can be expressed as a Fredholm determinant. We obtain an expression for it in terms of…
Motivated by the fact that the classical Jacobi theta function $\vartheta$ is the exponential generating function of the Eisenstein series, we study the exponential Taylor coefficients (in the elliptic variable) of a related natural partial…
We prove a recursion formula for generating functions of certain renormalizations of *-moments of the DT(\delta_0,1)-operator T, involving an operation \odot on formal power series and a transformation E that converts \odot to usual…
The eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on a curved spacetime are diffeomorphism-invariant functions of the geometry. They form an infinite set of ``observables'' for general relativity. Recent work of Chamseddine and Connes suggests that…
The Pearcey process is a universal point process in random matrix theory. In this paper, we study the generating function of the Pearcey process on any number $m$ of intervals. We derive an integral representation for it in terms of a…
This article considers Whittaker's function $W_{\kappa ,\mu }$ where $\kappa$ is real and $\mu$ is real or purely imaginary. Then $\varphi (x)=x^{-\mu -1/2}W_{\kappa ,\mu }(x)$ arises as the scattering function of a continuous time linear…
