This survey is an introduction to positive definite kernels and the set of methods they have inspired in the machine learning literature, namely kernel methods. We first discuss some properties of positive definite kernels as well as…

We generalize a preceding simple proof of the Jamiolkowski criterion to check whether a given linear map between algebras of operators is completely positive or not. The generalization is performed to embrace all algebras of Hilbert-Schmidt…

In this paper we study continuous kernels on compact two point homogeneous spaces which are positive definite and zonal (isotropic). Such kernels were characterized by R. Gangolli some forty years ago and are very useful for solving…

We study a family of fractional integral operators whose kernels satisfying an non-isotropic dilation have singularity on a coordinate subspace. A characterization is given for these operators bounded from the classical, atom decomposable…

We present a characterization for the continuous, isotropic and positive definite kernels on a product of spheres along the lines of a classical result of I. J. Schoenberg on positive definiteness on a single sphere. We also discuss a few…

Let $0\leq \alpha<n$, $m\in \mathbb{N}$ and let consider $T_{\alpha,m}$ be a of integral operator, given by kernel of the form $$K(x,y)=k_1(x-A_1y)k_2(x-A_2y)\dots k_m(x-A_my),$$ where $A_i$ are invertible matrices and each $k_i$ satisfies…

The theory of positive kernels and associated reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces, especially in the setting of holomorphic functions, has been an important tool for the last several decades in a number of areas of complex analysis and…

We study the integro-differential operators $L$ with kernels $K(y) = a(y) J(y)$, where $J(y)dy$ is a L\'evy measure on $\bR^d$ (i.e. $\int_{\bR^d}(1\wedge |y|^2)J(y)dy<\infty$) and $a(y)$ is an only measurable function with positive lower…

For a positive and invertible linear operator $T$ acting on a $C^*$-algebra, we give necessary and sufficient criteria for the inverse operator $T^{-1}$ to be positive, too. Moreover, a simple counterexample shows that $T^{-1}$ need not be…

Let $A_{1}$, $A_{2}$, $...$, $A_{k}$ be strictly positive operators on a Hilbert space. This note is to show a sufficient condition of $A_{k}\geq A_{k-1}\geq\geq A_{3}\geq A_{2}\geq A_{1}$, which extends the related result before.

We show that, for positive definite kernels, if specific forms of regularity (continuity, Sn-differentiability or holomorphy) hold locally on the diagonal, then they must hold globally on the whole domain of positive-definiteness. This…

We introduce a new class of fully nonlinear integro-differential operators with possible nonsymmetric kernels, which includes the ones that arise from stochastic control problems with purely jump L\`evy processes. If the index of the…

In this paper we show that the strictly positive definite matrix valued isotropic kernels in the circle and the real dot product kernels in Euclidean spaces are not well behaved with respect to its scalar valued projections. We generalize…

Interpolation and approximation of functionals with conditionally positive definite kernels is considered on sets of centers that are not determining for polynomials. It is shown that polynomial consistency is sufficient in order to define…

Using the Kato-Rosenblum theorem, we describe the absolutely continuous spectrum of a class of weighted integral Hankel operators in $L^2(\mathbb R_+)$. These self-adjoint operators generalise the explicitly diagonalisable operator with the…

In this paper we continue to investigate a certain class of Hankel-like positive definite kernels using their associated orthogonal polynomials. The main result of this paper is about the structure of this kind of kernels.

Positive definite operator-valued kernels generalize the well-known notion of reproducing kernels, and are naturally adapted to multi-output learning situations. This paper addresses the problem of learning a finite linear combination of…

With the aim of applications to solving general integral equations, we introduce and study in this paper a special class of bi-Carleman kernels on $\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}$, called $K^\infty$ kernels of Mercer type, whose property of…

We show that the kernel $K(x,y)={1\over 2}+\lfloor {1\over xy}\rfloor -{1\over xy}$ ($0<x,y\leq 1$) has infinitely many positive eigenvalues and infinitely many negative eigenvalues. Our interest in this kernel is motivated by the…

We consider a model for linear transient price impact for multiple assets that takes cross-asset impact into account. Our main goal is to single out properties that need to be imposed on the decay kernel so that the model admits…
