Let $K\subset R^n$ be a compact basic semi-algebraic set. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition (with no a priori bounding parameter) for a real sequence $y=(y_\alpha)$, $\alpha\in N^n$, to have a finite representing Borel measure…
Given a multi-index sequence $\mu_{\mathbf{k}}$, $\mathbf{k} = (k_1,..., k_n) \in \mathbb{N}_0^n$, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the existence of a regular Borel polymeasure $\gamma$ on the unit interval $I= [0,1]$ such…
We consider a generic basic semi-algebraic subset $\mathcal{S}$ of the space of generalized functions, that is a set given by (not necessarily countably many) polynomial constraints. We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for an…
We consider the problem of finding a (non-negative) measure $\mu$ on $\mathfrak{B}(\mathbb{C}^n)$ such that $\int_{\mathbb{C}^n} \mathbf{z}^{\mathbf{k}} d\mu(\mathbf{z}) = s_{\mathbf{k}}$, $\forall \mathbf{k}\in\mathcal{K}$. Here…
The two-dimensional moment problem consists of finding a positive Borel measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}^2} t_1^m t_2^n d\mu = s_{m,n}$, $m,n=0,1,2,...$, where $s_{m,n}$ are prescribed real constants (moments). We…
This note aims to show a uniqueness property for the solution (whenever exists) to the moment problem for the symmetric algebra $S(V)$ of a locally convex space $(V, \tau)$. Let $\mu$ be a measure representing a linear functional $L:…
We identify two sufficient conditions for locally finite Borel measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$ to give full mass to a countable family of Lipschitz images of $\mathbb{R}^m$. The first condition, extending a prior result of Pajot, is a sufficient…
Given a finite Borel measure $\mu$ on R n and basic semi-algebraic sets $\Omega$\_i $\subset$ R n , i = 1,. .. , p, we provide a systematic numerical scheme to approximate as closely as desired $\mu$(\cup\_i $\Omega$\_i), when all moments…
The moment problem in probability theory asks for criteria for when there exists a unique measure with a given tuple of moments. We study a variant of this problem for random objects in a category, where a moment is given by the average…
Let $\mu$ be a probability measure (or corresponding random variable) such that all moments $\mu_n$ exist. Knowledge of the moments is not sufficient to determine infinite divisibility of the measure; we show also that infinitely divisible,…
We will consider the indefinite truncated multidimensional moment problem. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a given truncated multisequence to have a signed representing measure $\mu$ with ${\rm card}\,{\rm supp}\, \mu$ as small as…
We study the truncated two-dimensional moment problem (with rectangular data): to find a non-negative measure $\mu(\delta)$, $\delta\in\mathfrak{B}(\mathbb{R}^2)$, such that $\int_{\mathbb{R}^2} x_1^m x_2^n d\mu = s_{m,n}$, $0\leq m\leq…
A truncated moment sequence (tms) of degree d is a vector indexed by monomials whose degree is at most d. Let K be a semialgebraic set.The truncated K-moment problem (TKMP) is: when does a tms y admit a positive Borel measure supported?…
Let $\mathsf{A}=\{a_1,\dots,a_m\}$, $m\in\mathbb{N}$, be measurable functions on a measurable space $(\mathcal{X},\mathfrak{A})$. If $\mu$ is a positive measure on $(\mathcal{X},\mathfrak{A})$ such that $\int a_i d\mu<\infty$ for all $i$,…
Given a closed subset $K$ in $\mathbb{R}$, the rational $K$-truncated moment problem ($K$-RTMP) asks to characterize the existence of a positive Borel measure $\mu$, supported on $K$, such that a linear functional $\mathcal{L}$, defined on…
If $x_1,\dots,x_m$ are finitely many points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, let $E_\epsilon=\cup_{i=1}^m\,x_i+Q_\epsilon$, where $Q_\epsilon=\{x\in \mathbb{R}^d,\,\,|x_i|\le \epsilon/2, \, i=1,...,d\}$ and let $\hat f$ denote the Fourier transform of…
For an indeterminate Hamburger moment problem we consider an infinite family of analytic densities solving the moment problem and we prove that they all have finite (Shannon) entropy. These densities are either all bounded or all unbounded.…
We study finitely additive extensions of the asymptotic density to all the subsets of natural numbers. Such measures are called density measures. We consider a class of density measures constructed from free ultrafilters on $\mathbb{N}$ and…
We prove the following theorem. Let $\mu$ be a measure on $R^n$ with even continuous density, and let $K,L$ be origin-symmetric convex bodies in $R^n$ so that $\mu(K\cap H)\le \mu(L\cap H)$ for any central hyperplane H. Then $\mu(K)\le…
Kernels of $\alpha$-permanental processes of the form \[ v(x,y)=u(x,y)+f(y),\qquad x,y\in S, \] in which $u(x,y)$ is symmetric, and $f$ is an excessive function for the Borel right process with potential densities $u(x,y)$, are considered.…
