Complete monotonicity is a strong positivity property for real-valued functions on convex cones. It is certified by the kernel of the inverse Laplace transform. We study this for negative powers of hyperbolic polynomials. Here the…

This work concerns the construction and characterization of product kernels for multivariate approximation from a finite set of discrete samples. To this end, we consider composing different component kernels, each acting on a…

In this article we revisit a new notion of positivity in real semisimple Lie groups that at the same time generalizes total positivity in split real Lie groups as well as positive Lie semigroups in Hermitian Lie groups of tube type. We…

It has been shown that the maximum stable set problem in some infinite graphs, and the kissing number problem in particular, reduces to a minimization problem over the cone of copositive kernels. Optimizing over this infinite dimensional…

In this work we study positivity preservers $T:\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]\to\mathbb{R}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ with constant coefficients and define their generators $A$ if they exist, i.e., $\exp(A) = T$. We use the theory of regular Fr\'echet Lie…

We study a Fredholm determinant of the hypergeometric kernel arising in the representation theory of the infinite-dimensional unitary group. It is shown that this determinant coincides with the Palmer-Beatty-Tracy tau function of a Dirac…

Deciding the positivity of a sequence defined by a linear recurrence with polynomial coefficients and initial condition is difficult in general. Even in the case of recurrences with constant coefficients, it is known to be decidable only…

First introduced by J. Deny, the classical principle of positivity of mass states that if $\kappa_\alpha\mu\leqslant\kappa_\alpha\nu$ everywhere on $\mathbb{R}^n$, then $\mu(\mathbb{R}^n)\leqslant\nu(\mathbb{R}^n)$. Here $\mu,\nu$ are…

We consider infinite matrices obtained by restricting Hardy integral kernels to natural numbers. For a suitable class of Hardy kernels we describe the absolutely continuous spectrum, the essential spectrum and the asymptotic spectral…

We give the basic definitions and some theoretical results about hyperdeterminants, introduced by A. Cayley in 1845. We prove integrability (understood as 4d-consistency) of a nonlinear difference equation defined by the…

We prove that the homogeneously polyanalytic functions of total order $m$, defined by the system of equations $\overline{D}^{(k_1,\ldots,k_n)} f=0$ with $k_1+\cdots+k_n=m$, can be written as polynomials of total degree $<m$ in variables…

Motivated by applications to the study of stochastic processes, we introduce a new analysis of positive definite kernels $K$, their reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS), and an associated family of feature spaces that may be chosen in…

Let us consider the renormalized Nelson model at a fixed total momentum $P$: $H_{\mathrm{ren}}(P)$; The Hamiltonian $H_{\mathrm{ren}}(P)$ is defined through an infinite energy renormalization. We prove that $e^{-\beta H_{\mathrm{ren}}(P)}$…

Deciding the positivity of a sequence defined by a linear recurrence and initial conditions is, in general, a hard problem. When the coefficients of the recurrences are constants, decidability has only been proven up to order 5. The…

We consider the decidability and complexity of the Ultimate Positivity Problem, which asks whether all but finitely many terms of a given rational linear recurrence sequence (LRS) are positive. Using lower bounds in Diophantine…

This paper discusses the general structure of reflection positive Euclidean covariant distributions that can be used to construct Euclidean representations of relativistic quantum mechanical models of systems of a finite number of degrees…

This paper introduces a novel kernel density estimator (KDE) based on the generalised exponential (GE) distribution, designed specifically for positive continuous data. The proposed GE KDE offers a mathematically tractable form that avoids…

The main aim of this paper is to generalize the classical concept of positive operator, and to develop a general extension theory, which overcomes not only the lack of a Hilbert space structure, but also the lack of a normable topology. The…

The set of indices that correspond to the positive entries of a sequence of numbers is called its positivity set. In this paper, we study the density of the positivity set of a given linear recurrence sequence, that is the question of how…

Starting from the expression for the superdeterminant of $ (xI-M)$, where $M$ is an arbitrary supermatrix , we propose a definition for the corresponding characteristic polynomial and we prove that each supermatrix satisfies its…
