Let $\mu$ and $\nu$ be two non-degenerate finite signed Borel measures defined on a proper convex cone of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We prove that if all convolution powers of $\mu$ and $\nu$ are appropriately equal (and non-zero) on a proper concave…

The present paper is devoted to the {\it local moment problem}, which consists in finding of non-decreasing functions on the real axis having given first $2n+1, \; n\geq 0,$ power moments on the whole axis and also $2m+1$ first power…

We prove existence of a special class of solutions to the (elliptic) Nonlinear Schroedinger Equation $- \epsilon^2 \Delta \psi + V(x) \psi = |\psi|^{p-1} \psi$ on a manifold or in the Euclidean space. Here V represents the potential, p is…

We construct a class of closed timelike curves (CTCs) using a compactified extra dimension $u$. A nonzero metric element $g_{tu}(u)$ enables particles to travel backwards in global time $t$. The compactified dimension guarantees that the…

Tian initiated the study of incomplete K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on quasi-projective varieties with cone-edge type singularities along a divisor, described by the cone-angle $2\pi(1-\alpha)$ for $\alpha\in (0, 1)$. In this paper we study…

We associate certain probability measures on $\R$ to geodesics in the space $\H_L$ of positively curved metrics on a line bundle $L$, and to geodesics in the finite dimensional symmetric space of hermitian norms on $H^0(X, kL)$. We prove…

In this paper we consider power and trigonometric series whose coefficients are supposed to satisfy the Hausdorff conditions, which play a relevant role in the moment problem theory. We prove that these series converge to functions analytic…

As a means to better understanding manifolds with positive curvature, there has been much recent interest in the study of non-negatively curved manifolds which contain points at which all 2-planes have positive curvature. We show that there…

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…

Controlling a large population, in the limit, a continuum, of structurally identical dynamical systems with parametric variations is a pervasive task in diverse applications in science and engineering. However, the severely underactuated…

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…

The cone of nonnegative polynomials is of fundamental importance in real algebraic geometry, but its facial structure is understood in very few cases. We initiate a systematic study of the facial structure of the cone of nonnegative…

We derive two-sided bounds for moments of random multilinear forms (random chaoses) with nonnegative coeficients generated by independent nonnegative random variables $X_i$ which satisfy the following condition on the growth of moments:…

We prove an obstruction at the level of rational cohomology in small degrees to the existence of positively curved metrics with large symmetry rank. The symmetry rank bound is logarithmic in the dimension of the manifold. As an application,…

Let $\beta \equiv \{ \beta_\mathbf{i} \}_{\mathbf{i} \in \mathbb{Z}_+^d}$ be a $d$-dimensional multisequence. Curto and Fialkow, have shown that if the infinite moment matrix $M(\beta)$ is finite-rank positive semidefinite, then $\beta$ has…

Canonical coherent states can be written as infinite series in powers of a single complex number $z$ and a positive integer $\rho(m)$. The requirement that these states realize a resolution of the identity typically results in a moment…

The space of positive operator-valued measures on the Borel sets of a compact (or even locally compact) Hausdorff space with values in the algebra of linear operators acting on a d-dimensional Hilbert space is studied from the perspectives…

Spectral features of the empirical moment matrix constitute a resourceful tool for unveiling properties of a cloud of points, among which, density, support and latent structures. It is already well known that the empirical moment matrix…

A Finsler space $(M,F)$ is called flag-wise positively curved, if for any $x\in M$ and any tangent plane $\mathbf{P}\subset T_xM$, we can find a nonzero vector $y\in \mathbf{P}$, such that the flag curvature $K^F(x,y, \mathbf{P})>0$. Though…
