Positivity bounds in effective field theories (EFTs) can be extracted through the moment problem approach, utilizing well-established results from the mathematical literature. We generalize this formalism using the matrix moment approach to…

This paper solves the rational noncommutative analog of Hilbert's 17th problem: if a noncommutative rational function is positive semidefinite on all tuples of hermitian matrices in its domain, then it is a sum of hermitian squares of…

In this work we investigate and characterize linear functionals $L:\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]\to\mathbb{R}$ with absolutely continuous representing measures $\mu$, i.e., $\mathrm{d}\mu(x) = g(x)\,\mathrm{d} x$ for some density $g$. We focus…

The generalized moment problem (GMP) is an infinite dimensional linear problem over the cone of finite nonnegative Borel measures. When a GMP instance involves finitely many polynomial moment constraints, moment/sum-of-squares hierarchies…

Quantum systems with constraints are often considered in modern theoretical physcics. All realistic field models based on the idea of gauge symmetry are of this type. A partial case of constraints being linear in coordinate and momenta…

If a real-valued function is continuous on a real interval and it takes on two different values, then it will also take any value in between those two, by the Intermediate Value Theorem. It is not immediately clear what would be a natural…

Morse function is called strong if all its critical values are pairwise distinct. Given such a function $f$ and a field $\mathbb{F}$ Barannikov constructed a pairing of some of the critical points of $f$, which is now also known as barcode.…

We investigate the moment problem and Jacobi matrix associated -- by the operator theoretic framework of the semilocal trace formula -- to each finite set $S$ of places of $\mathbb Q$ containing the archimedean place. The measure is given…

The moment map $\mu$ is a central concept in the study of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups $K$ on symplectic manifolds. In this short note, we propose a theory of moment maps coupled with an $\mathrm{Ad}_K$-invariant convex…

Some important problems (e.g., in optimal transport and optimal control) have a relaxed (or weak) formulation in a space of appropriate measures whichis much easier to solve. However, an optimal solution $\mu$ of the latter solves the…

We investigate the generalized moment membership problem for matrices, a formulation equivalent to Skolem's problem for linear recurrence sequences. We show decidability for orthogonal, unitary, and real eigenvalue matrices, and…

We place ourselves in a functional regression setting and propose a novel methodology for regressing a real output on vector-valued functional covariates. This methodology is based on the notion of signature, which is a representation of a…

In this article we study the bivariate truncated moment problem (TMP) of degree $2k$ on the union of parallel lines. First we present an alternative proof of Fialkow's solution \cite{Fia15} to the TMP on the union of two parallel lines…

Let $\mathcal{T}_{+}(E)$ be the tensor algebra of a $W^{*}$-correspondence $E$ over a $W^{*}$-algebra $M$. In earlier work, we showed that the completely contractive representations of $\mathcal{T}_{+}(E)$, whose restrictions to $M$ are…

In 1974 J\"urgen Moser has shown that the classical Moment Problem plays a fundamental role for the theory of completely integrable systems, by proving that the simplest case of the finite Toda lattice is described exhaustively in its…

This German paper discusses certain aspects of the non-degenerate case of truncated matricial moment problems on the intervals [$\alpha$,$\infty$) and (-$\infty$,\alpha] for any real number $\alpha$.

The main result of the paper gives criteria for extendibility of sesquilinear form-valued mappings defined on symmetric subsets of *-semigroups to positive definite ones. By specifying this we obtain new solutions of: * the truncated…

We study the continuity and the measurability of the solution to Schr\"odinger's functional equation, with respect to space, kernel and marginals, provided the space of all Borel probability measures is endowed with the weak topology. This…

In this article, we show that if $A$ is a maximal monotone operator on a Hilbert space $H$ with $0$ in the range $\textrm{Rg}(A)$ of $A$, then for every $0<s<1$, the Dirichlet problem associated with the Bessel-type equation $$…

Let $L$ be a (non necessarily unital) truncated vector lattice of real-valued functions on a nonempty set $X$. A nonzero linear functional $\psi$ on $L$ is called a truncation homomorphism if it preserves truncation, i.e.,% \[ \psi\left(…
