We study the total positivity of the kernel $1/(x^2 + 2 \cos(\pi\a)xy +y^2).$ The case of infinite order is characterized by an application of Schoenberg's theorem. We then give necessary conditions for the cases of any given finite order…

It is well-known that a symmetric matrix with its entries $\pm1$ is not positive definite. But this is not ture for symmetric tensors (hyper-matrix). In this paper, we mainly dicuss the positive (semi-)definiteness criterion of a class of…

In this paper we are going to prove two asymptotic formulas for determinants det(I-K_s), as s goes to infinity, where K_s are the Wiener-Hopf-Hankel operators acting on L^2[0,s] with the kernels K(x-y)+K(x+y) and K(x-y)-K(x+y),…

We consider light-ray operators $\mathcal{L}_{2n} = \int\mathrm{d} x^+ (x^+)^{2n}T_{++}$, where $x^+$ is a null coordinate and $n$ a positive integer, in QFT in Minkowski spacetime in arbitrary dimensions. These operators are…

An axiomatic theory of operator connections and operator means was investigated by Kubo and Ando in 1980. A connection is a binary operation for positive operators satisfying the monotonicity, the transformer inequality and the…

We show that a formal power series in $2N$ non-commuting indeterminates is a positive non-commutative kernel if and only if the kernel on $N$-tuples of matrices of any size obtained from this series by matrix substitution is positive. We…

We study classes of reproducing kernels $K$ on general domains; these are kernels which arise commonly in machine learning models; models based on certain families of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. They are the positive definite kernels…

We investigate the notion of conditionally positive definite in the context of Hilbert $C^*$-modules and present a characterization of the conditionally positive definiteness in terms of the usual positive definiteness. We give a Kolmogorov…

We show that every Hankel operator $H$ is unitarily equivalent to a pseudo-differential operator $A$ of a special structure acting in the space $L^2 ({\Bbb R}) $. As an example, we consider integral operators $H$ in the space $L^2 ({\Bbb…

The paper introduces new sufficient conditions of strict positive definiteness for kernels on d-dimensional spheres which are not radially symmetric but possess specific coefficient structures. The results use the series expansion of the…

In the paper, we consider integral operators with non-negative kernels satisfying conditions, which are less restrictive than conditions studied earlier. We establish criteria for the boundedness of these operators in Lebesgue spaces.

Motivated by practical applications, I present a novel and comprehensive framework for operator-valued positive definite kernels. This framework is applied to both operator theory and stochastic processes. The first application focuses on…

In this paper we study positive fixed points of Hammerstein integral operators with degenerate kernel in the cone of C[0, 1]. Problem on a number of positive fixed points of the Hammerstein integral operator leads to the study positive…

On finite dimensional spaces, it is apparent that an operator is the product of two positive operators if and only if it is similar to a positive operator. Here, the class ${\mathcal L}^{+2}$ of bounded operators on separable infinite…

We characterize the boundedness of a positive integral operator $T_K$, with kernel $K\in M_+(\R^{2n})$, between Lorentz-Gamma spaces $\Gamma_{p,\phi_2}(\R^n)$ and $\Gamma_{q,\phi_1}(\R^n)$, $1<p\le q<\infty$. The key step reduces the…
