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 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 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…
One of the ways to characterize a probability distribution is to show that it is moment-determinate, uniquely determined by knowing all its moments. The uniqueness, in the absolutely continuous case, depends entirely on the behaviour of the…
We have analyzed some conditions which are essentially involved in deciding whether or not a probability distribution is unique (moment-determinate) or non-unique (moment-indeterminate) by its moments. We suggest new conditions concerning…
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…
In this paper a connection between Hamburger moment sequences and their moment subsequences is given and the determinacy of these problems are related.
A sequence $(a_n)_{n \geq 0}$ is Stieltjes moment sequence if it has the form $a_n = \int_0^\infty x^n d\mu(x)$ for $\mu$ is a nonnegative measure on $[0,\infty)$. It is known that $(a_n)_{n \geq 0}$ is a Stieltjes moment sequence if and…
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…
In this paper, we study perturbation of Hilbert-Schmidt frames under structured modifications, where the perturbation takes the form of replacing finitely or infinitely many frame elements. We establish explicit criteria under which the…
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…
In this paper we study the strong matrix Stieltjes moment problem. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for its solvability. An analytic description of all solutions of the moment problem is derived. Necessary and sufficient…
We investigate conditions in order to decide whether a given sequence of real numbers represents expected record values arising from an independent, identically distributed, sequence of random variables. The main result provides a necessary…
We show that Stieltjes moment sequences are infinitely log-convex, which parallels a famous result that (finite) P\'olya frequency sequences are infinitely log-concave. We introduce the concept of $q$-Stieltjes moment sequences of…
Given a martingale sequence of random fields that satisfies a natural assumption of boundedness, it is shown that the pointwise limit of this sequence can be modified in such a way that a certain class of moduli of continuity is preserved.…
A small set of combinatorial sequences have coefficients that can be represented as moments of a nonnegative measure on $[0, \infty)$. Such sequences are known as Stieltjes moment sequences. This article focuses on some classical sequences…
In this paper we provide a way to construct new moment sequences from a given moment sequence. An operator based on multivariate positive polynomials is applied to get the new moment sequences. A class of new sequences is corresponding to a…
A class of Stieltjes functions of finite type is introduced. These satisfy Widder's conditions on the successive derivatives up to some finite order, and are not necessarily smooth. We show that such functions have a unique integral…
The Stieltjes classes play a significant role in the moment problem allowing to exhibit explicitly an infinite family of probability densities with the same sequence of moments. In this paper, the notion of $q$-moment…
The Stieltjes moment problem is studied in a new framework within the general Gelfand-Shilov spaces defined via weight sequences. The novelty consists of allowing for a naturally larger target space for the moment mapping, which sends a…
