We consider the notion of the matrix (tensor) distribution of a measurable function of several variables. On the one hand, it is an invariant of this function with respect to a certain group of transformations of variables; on the other…
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,…
Entrywise functions preserving positivity and related notions have a rich history, beginning with the seminal works of Schur, P\'olya-Szeg\H{o}, Schoenberg, and Rudin. Following their classical results, it is well-known that entrywise…
We consider three uniqueness theorems: one from the theory of meromorphic functions, another one from asymptotic combinatorics, and the third one about representations of the infinite symmetric group. The first theorem establishes the…
We prove the existence of gaps between all the different classes of matrix monotone functions defined on an interval, provided the interval is non trivial and different from the whole real line. We then show how matrix monotone functions…
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…
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…
Entrywise functions preserving Loewner positivity have been studied by many authors, most notably Schoenberg and Rudin. Following their work, it is known that functions preserving positivity when applied entrywise to positive semidefinite…
In this paper we study moment sequences of matrix-valued measures on compact intervals. A complete parametrization of such sequences is obtained via a symmetric version of matricial canonical moments. Furthermore, distinguished extensions…
We study the moments of equilibrium measures for iterated function systems (IFSs) and draw connections to operator theory. Our main object of study is the infinite matrix which encodes all the moment data of a Borel measure on R^d or C. To…
We prove that a class of infinite measure preserving transformations, satisfying a "strong" weak mixing condition, generates all rigidity sequences of all conservative ergodic invertible measure preserving transformations defined on a…
For a symmetric bounded measurable function W on [0,1]^2, "moments" of W can be defined as values t(F,W) indexed by simple graphs. We prove that every such function is determined by its moments up to a measure preserving transformation of…
Two transforms of functions on a half-line are considered. It is proved that their composition gives a concave majorant for every nonnegative function. In particular, this composition is the identity transform on the class of nonnegative…
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…
The problem of recovering a moment-determinate multivariate function $f$ via its moment sequence is studied. Under mild conditions on $f$, the point-wise and $L_1$-rates of convergence for the proposed constructions are established. The…
We review the fundamentals of coupling constant metamorphosis (CCM) and the St\"ackel transform, and apply them to map integrable and superintegrable systems of all orders into other such systems on different manifolds. In general, CCM does…
We obtain for the Kempner series (i.e. harmonic series where certain digits are excluded from all denominators, for example the digit 9 in base 10) new representations as geometrically convergent series. The coefficients for these…
A recent result characterizes the fully order reversing operators acting on the class of lower semicontinuous proper convex functions in a real Banach space as certain linear deformations of the Legendre-Fenchel transform. Motivated by the…
We show that the Hankel transform of a general monotone function converges uniformly if and only if the limit function is bounded. To this end, we rely on an Abel-Olivier test for real-valued functions. Analogous results for cosine series…
We present a framework which unifies a large class of non-commutative spacetimes that can be described in terms of a deformed Heisenberg algebra. The commutation relations between spacetime coordinates are up to linear order in the…
