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…
In 1998 G. Valent made conjectures about the order and type of certain indeterminate Stieltjes moment problems associated with birth and death processes having polynomial birth and death rates of degree p\ge 3. Romanov recently proved that…
The Stieltjes constants have attracted considerable attention in recent years and a number of authors, including the present one, have considered various ways in which these constants may be evaluated. The primary purpose of this paper is…
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…
A linear operator $S$ in a complex Hilbert space $\hh$ for which the set $\dzn{S}$ of its $C^\infty$-vectors is dense in $\hh$ and $\{\|S^n f\|^2\}_{n=0}^\infty$ is a Stieltjes moment sequence for every $f \in \dzn{S}$ is said to generate…
A new method of verifying the subnormality of unbounded Hilbert space operators based on an approximation technique is proposed. Diverse sufficient conditions for subnormality of unbounded weighted shifts on directed trees are established.…
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…
We give (necessary and sufficient) conditions over a sequence $\left\{ f_{n}\right\} _{n=0}^{\infty}$ of functions under which every generalized Stieltjes moment problem \[ \int_{0}^{\infty} f_{n}(x)\phi(x)\mathrm{d} x=a_{n}, \ \ \…
The aim of this paper is to provide some new criteria for the Stieltjes moment problem. We first give a Tauberian type criterion for moment indeterminacy that is expressed purely in terms of the asymptotic behavior of the moment sequence…
We present a new asymptotic formula for the Stieltjes constants which is both simpler and more accurate than several others published in the literature (see e.g. \cite{Fekih-Ahmed}, \cite{Knessl Coffey}, \cite{Paris}). More importantly, it…
We consider analytic continuations of Fourier transforms and Stieltjes transforms. This enables us to define what we call complex moments for some class of probability measures which do not have moments in the usual sense. There are two…
The sequence of Ap\'ery numbers is the moment sequence in the sense of Stieltjes. This is the short version of the proof. Appendix added for v.2
We characterize the surjectivity and the existence of a continuous linear right inverse of the Stieltjes moment mapping on Gelfand-Shilov spaces, both of Beurling and Roumieu type, in terms of their defining weight sequence. As a corollary,…
We study analytic and geometric properties of Stieltjes and inverse Stieltjes families defined on a separable Hilbert space and establish various minimal representations for them by means of compressed resolvents of various types of linear…
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…
The Hamburger moment problem for the $q$-Lommel polynomials which are related to the Hahn-Exton $q$-Bessel function is known to be indeterminate for a certain range of parameters. In this paper, the Nevanlinna parametrization for the…
We give a continued-fraction characterization of Stieltjes moment sequences for which there exists a representing measure with support in $[\xi, \infty)$. The proof is elementary.
Probability densities that are not uniquely determined by their moments are said to be "moment-indeterminate", or "M-indeterminate". Determining whether or not a density is M-indeterminate, or how to generate an M-indeterminate density, is…
We consider the Stieltjes moment problem for the Berg-Urbanik semigroups which form a class of multiplicative convolution semigroups on $\mathbb{R}_+$ that is in bijection with the set of Bernstein functions. Berg and Dur\'an proved that…
The spectral measure of the position (momentum) operator $X$ for $q$-deformed oscillator is calculated in the case of the indetermine Hamburger moment problem. The exposition is given for concrete choice of generators for $q$-oscillator…
