Let $K_f$ be a closed semi-algebraic set in $\dR^d$ such that there exist bounded real polynomials $h_1,{...},h_n$ on $K_f$. It is proved that the moment problem for $K_f$ is solvable provided it is for all sets $K_f\cap C_\lambda$, where…

A moment problem is presented for a class of signed measures which are termed pseudo-positive. Our main result says that for every pseudo-positive definite functional (subject to some reasonable restrictions) there exists a representing…
