Abstract
It is shown that for positive real numbers , , where denotes the beta function, is infinitely divisible and totally positive. For , the Cholesky decomposition and successive elementary bidiagonal decomposition are computed. Let be the th Bell number. It is proved that is a totally positive matrix but is infinitely divisible only upto order . It is also shown that the symmetrized Stirling matrices are totally positive.
