We continue the study of truncated matrix-valued moment problems begun in arXiv:2310.00957. Let $q\in\mathbb{N}$. Suppose that $(\mathcal{X},\mathfrak{X})$ is a measurable space and $\mathcal{E}$ is a finite-dimensional vector space of…

Consider the spatial Newtonian three body problem at fixed negative energy and fixed angular momentum. The moment of inertia $I$ provides a measure of the overall size of a three-body system. We will prove that there is a positive number…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure (or corresponding random variable) such that all moments $\mu_n$ exist. Knowledge of the moments is not sufficient to determine infinite divisibility of the measure; we show also that infinitely divisible,…

We characterize the existence of the $L^1$ solutions of the truncated moments problem in several real variables on unbounded supports by the existence of the maximum of certain concave Lagrangian functions. A natural regularity assumption…

The moment measure problem consists in finding a convex function $\psi$ whose moment measure, i.e., the pushforward by $\nabla \psi$ of the measure with density $e^{-\psi(\,\cdot\,)}$, is prescribed. It is highly non-linear and less…

The two-dimensional moment problem consists of finding a positive Borel measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}^2} t_1^m t_2^n d\mu = s_{m,n}$, $m,n=0,1,2,...$, where $s_{m,n}$ are prescribed real constants (moments). We…
