Mutual information I in infinite sequences (and in their finite prefixes) is essential in theoretical analysis of many situations. Yet its right definition has been elusive for a long time. I address it by generalizing Kolmogorov Complexity…
Complex moment sequences are exactly those which admit positive definite extensions on the integer lattice points of the upper diagonal half-plane. Here we prove that the aforesaid extension is unique provided the complex moment sequence is…
The paper treats several aspects of the truncated matricial $[\alpha,\beta]$-Hausdorff type moment problems. It is shown that each $[\alpha,\beta]$-Hausdorff moment sequence has a particular intrinsic structure. More precisely, each element…
We introduce a new strategy in solving the truncated complex moment problem. To this aim we investigate recursive doubly indexed sequences and their characteristic polynomials. A characterization of recursive doubly indexed \emph{moment}…

This paper deals with the moment problem on a (not necessarily finitely generated) commutative unital real algebra $A$. We define moment functionals on $A$ as linear functionals which can be written as integrals over characters of $A$ with…
Given a finite set $\{M_0,\dots,M_{d-1}\}$ of nonnegative $2\times 2$ matrices and a nonnegative column-vector $V$, we associate to each $(\omega_n)\in\{0,\dots,d-1\}^\mathbb N$ the sequence of the column-vectors…
Matrix-valued covariance extension and multivariate spectral estimation are formulated as generalized moment problems in the "THREE" approach and its extensions. Under this context, we discuss Theorem 6 in \cite{Georgiou-06} concerning the…
Moments of moments of the Riemann zeta function, defined by \[ \text{MoM}_T (k,\beta) = \frac{1}{T} \int_T^{2T} \left( \int_{ |h|\leq (\log T)^\theta}|\zeta(\tfrac{1}{2} + i t + ih)|^{2\beta} dh \right)^k dt \] where $k,\beta \geq 0$ and…
Let ${\bf M}=(M_1,\ldots, M_k)$ be a tuple of real $d\times d$ matrices. Under certain irreducibility assumptions, we give checkable criteria for deciding whether ${\bf M}$ possesses the following property: there exist two constants…
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…
The truncated moment problem consists of determining whether a given finitedimensional vector of real numbers y is obtained by integrating a basis of the vector space of polynomials of bounded degree with respect to a non-negative measure…
The aim of this paper is to study the full $K-$moment problem for measures supported on some particular non-linear subsets $K$ of an infinite dimensional vector space. We focus on the case of random measures, that is $K$ is a subset of all…
We prove that a type II$_1$ factor $M$ can have at most one Cartan subalgebra $A$ satisfying a combination of rigidity and compact approximation properties. We use this result to show that within the class $\Cal H \Cal T$ of factors $M$…
The classical Truncated Moment problem asks for necessary and sufficient conditions so that a linear functional $L$ on $\mathcal{P}_{d}$, the vector space of real $n$-variable polynomials of degree at most $d$, can be written as integration…
We recall the definition and the properties of a moment sequence and recall that all real sequences that have a finite rank of its Hankel matrix (see definition in the sequel) satisfy a homogeneous linear equation with constant…
The power moments of a positive measure on the real line or the circle are characterized by the non-negativity of an infinite matrix, Hankel, respectively Toeplitz, attached to the data. Except some fortunate configurations, in higher…
We consider a two-parameter family of maps $T_{\alpha, \beta}: [0,1] \to [0,1]$ with a neutral fixed point and a non-flat critical point. Building on a cone technique due to Baladi and Todd, we show that for a class of $L^q$ observables…
When the classical Hamburger moment problem has solutions, it has either exactly one solution or infinitely many solutions. Correspondingly, the moment problem is said to be either determinate or indeterminate. In terms of Jacobi operators,…
Let $\mu$ be a given Borel measure on $\K\subseteq\R^n$ and let $y=(y_\alpha)$, $\alpha\in\N^n$, be a given sequence. We provide several conditions linking $y$ and the moment sequence $z=(z_\alpha)$ of $\mu$, for $y$ to be the moment…
