Let $\mathsf{A}=\{a_1,\dots,a_m\}$, $m\in\mathbb{N}$, be measurable functions on a measurable space $(\mathcal{X},\mathfrak{A})$. If $\mu$ is a positive measure on $(\mathcal{X},\mathfrak{A})$ such that $\int a_i d\mu<\infty$ for all $i$,…

In this paper we improve the bounds for the Carath\'eodory number, especially on algebraic varieties and with small gaps (not all monomials are present). We provide explicit lower and upper bounds on algebraic varieties, $\mathbb{R}^n$, and…

We study truncated moment sequences of distribution mixtures, especially from Gaussian and log-normal distributions and their Carath\'eodory numbers. For $\mathsf{A} = \{a_1,\dots,a_m\}$ continuous (sufficiently differentiable) functions on…

Let $C_1,\dots,C_{d+1}\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be $d+1$ point sets, each containing the origin in its convex hull. We call these sets color classes, and we call a sequence $p_1, \dots, p_{d+1}$ with $p_i \in C_i$, for $i = 1, \dots, d+1$, a…

The integer Carath\'eodory rank of a pointed rational cone $C$ is the smallest number $k$ such that every integer vector contained in $C$ is an integral non-negative combination of at most $k$ Hilbert basis elements. We investigate the…

In this paper we show that many well-known counting coefficients, including the Catalan numbers, the Motzkin numbers, the central binomial coefficients, the central Delannoy numbers are Hausdorff moment sequences in a unified approach. In…

We study the truncated two-dimensional moment problem (with rectangular data): to find a non-negative measure $\mu(\delta)$, $\delta\in\mathfrak{B}(\mathbb{R}^2)$, such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}^2} x_1^m x_2^n d\mu = s_{m,n}$, $0\leq m\leq…

The truncated moment problem asks to characterize finite sequences of real numbers that are the moments of a positive Borel measure on Rn. Its tracial analog is obtained by integrating traces of symmetric matrices and is the main topic of…

The approximate Carath\'eodory problem in general form is as follows: Given two symmetric convex bodies $P,Q \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$, a parameter $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\mathbf{z} \in \textrm{conv}(X)$ with $X \subseteq P$, find…

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…

Various methods have been proposed to approximate a solution to the truncated Hausdorff moment problem. In this paper, we establish a method of comparison for the performance of the approximations. Three ways of producing random moment…
