Generalized indefinite strings provide a canonical model for self-adjoint operators with simple spectrum (other classical models are Jacobi matrices, Krein strings and 2x2 canonical systems). We prove a number of Szeg\H{o}-type theorems for…
We summarize significant classical results on (in)determinacy of measures in terms of their finite positive integer order moments. Well-known is the role of the smallest eigenvalues of Hankel matrices, starting from Hamburger's results a…
We consider a normalized indeterminate Hamburger moment sequence s which is supposed to be Stieltjes. We revisit old results about determinacy/indeterminacy in the sense of Stieltjes for s and we prove some new results about the concepts…
We consider univariate distributions with finite moments of all positive orders. The moment problem is to determine whether or not a given distribution is uniquely determined by the sequence of its moments. There is a huge literature on…
We consider the Hamburger, Stieltjes and Hausdorff moment problems, that are problems of the construction of a Borel measure supported on a real line, on a half-line or on an interval $(0,1)$, from a prescribed set of moments. We propose a…
Motivated by the study of certain nonlinear wave equations (in particular, the Camassa-Holm equation), we introduce a new class of generalized indefinite strings associated with differential equations of the form…
In this paper we consider two related objects: singular positive semidefinite Hankel block--matrices and associated degenerate truncated matrix Hamburger moment problems. The description of all solutions of a degenerate matrix Hamburger…
In this article we solve four special cases of the truncated Hamburger moment problem (THMP) of degree $2k$ with one or two missing moments in the sequence. As corollaries we obtain, by using appropriate substitutions, the solutions to…
We solve the inverse problem from the spectral measure and the inverse three-spectra problem for the class of singular Krein strings on a finite interval with trace class resolvents. In particular, this includes a complete description of…
In this note we study inverse spectral problems for canonical Hamiltonian systems, which encompass a broad class of second order differential equations on a half-line. Our goal is to extend the classical resultss developed in the work of…
In this paper a connection between Hamburger moment sequences and their moment subsequences is given and the determinacy of these problems are related.
We show first that there are intrinsic relationships among different conditions, old and recent, which lead to some general statements in both the Stieltjes and the Hamburger moment problems. Then we describe checkable conditions and prove…
We describe all solutions of the matrix Hamburger moment problem in a general case (no conditions besides solvability are assumed). We use the fundamental results of A.V. Shtraus on the generalized resolvents of symmetric operators. All…
In this paper, we study the truncated matrix moment problem in one variable through recursive matrix extensions. \ We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a recursive matrix extension of finite data to be a matrix moment sequence in…
Truncated moment problems in the class of generalized Nevanlinna functions are investigated. General solvability criteria will be established, covering both the even and odd problems, including complete parametrizations of solutions. The…
A new approach to the Euler-Bernoulli beam based on an inhomogeneous matrix string problem is presented. Three ramifications of the approach are developed: (1) motivated by an analogy with the Camassa-Holm equation a class of isospectral…
This paper treat determinacy of strong moment problems in part I and indeterminacy of strong moment problems in part II. This paper is a summary of the following papers: [1] Ald\'en. E., Determinacy of Strong Moment Problems. [2] On…
This paper aims at finding conditions on a Hamburger or Stieltjes moment sequence, under which the change of at most a finite number of its entries produces another sequence of the same type. It turns out that a moment sequence allows all…
We employ some results about continued fraction expansions of Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions to characterize the spectral data of generalized indefinite strings of Stieltjes type. In particular, this solves the corresponding inverse spectral…
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,…
