In 1942 I. J. Schoenberg proved that a function is positive definite in the unit sphere if and only if this function is a positive linear combination of the Gegenbauer polynomials. In this paper we extend Schoenberg's theorem for…

In a nutshell, we intend to extend Schoenberg's classical theorem connecting conditionally positive semidefinite functions $F\colon \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{C}$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$, and their positive semidefinite exponentials $\exp(tF)$,…

In this note we give a recursive formula for the derivatives of isotropic positive definite functions on the Hilbert sphere. We then use it to prove a conjecture stated by Tr\"ubner and Ziegel, which says that for a positive definite…

It is shown that the integrals of the Jacobi polynomials \begin{equation*}%\label{eq:Fn^J} \int_0^t (t-\theta)^\delta P_n^{(\alpha-\frac12,\beta-\frac12)}(\cos \theta) \left(\sin \tfrac{\theta}2\right)^{2 \alpha} \left(\cos…

Let $\beta>1$. For $x \in [0,\infty)$, we have so-called the $\beta$-expansion of $x$ in base $\beta$ as follows: $$x= \sum_{j \leq k} x_{j}\beta^{j} = x_{k}\beta^{k}+ \cdots + x_{1}\beta+x_{0}+x_{-1}\beta^{-1} + x_{-2}\beta^{-2} + \cdots$$…

We consider the group $\mathrm{Aut}(T)$ of isometries of a semi-homogeneous tree $T=T_{q_+,q_-}$ with valencies $q_+ +1$ and $q_- +1$ and its two orbits $V_+$, $V_-$ respectively. We make use of the action of $\mathrm{Aut} (T)$ to equip the…

This paper is devoted to study the following Choquard equation \begin{eqnarray*}\left\{ \begin{array}{lll} (-\triangle)^{\alpha/2}u=(|x|^{\beta-n}\ast u^p)u^{p-1},~~~&x\in R^n, u\geq0,\,\,&x\in R^n, \end{array} \right. \end{eqnarray*} where…

Consider \begin{align*} G(N,M;\alpha,\beta,K,q) = \sum\limits_{j\in\mathbb{Z}}(-1)^jq^{\frac{1}{2}Kj((\alpha+\beta)j+\alpha-\beta)}\left[\begin{matrix}M+N\\N-Kj\end{matrix}\right]_{q}. \end{align*} In this paper, we prove the non-negativity…

Positive definite functions on spheres have received an increasing interest in many branches of mathematics and statistics. In particular, the Schoenberg sequences in the spectral representation of positive definite functions have been…

In this work we shall apply the Bochner's theorem to prove certain combinations of Euler's q-exponentials are positive definite functions. Then we apply this positivity to prove curious inequalities for the Jacobi theta function…

I. J. Schoenberg proved that a function is positive definite in the unit sphere if and only if this function is a nonnegative linear combination of Gegenbauer polynomials. This fact play a crucial role in Delsarte's method for finding…

In this paper, we consider the following nonlinear elliptic equation with gradient term: \[ \left\{ \begin{gathered} - \Delta u - \frac{1}{2}(x \cdot \nabla u) + (\lambda a(x)+b(x))u = \beta u^q +u^{2^*-1}, \hfill 0<u \in…

In this article, I introduce a group-theoretical method to prove positivity of certain linear combinations (with coefficients generally lying in $\mathbb{C}$) of exponential functions under a set of semidefinite linear constraints. The…

We explore a number of functional properties of the $q$-gamma function and a class of its quotients; including the $q$-beta function. We obtain formulas for all higher logarithmic derivatives of these quotients and give precise conditions…

By studying the n-dimensional cube, the author finds a new way, and use it to proves that the indefinite equation $x^n+y^n=z^n(n=>3)$ has no any solutions of positive integers.

We study the existence/nonexistence of positive solution of $$ {\Delta^2u-\mu\frac{u}{|x|^4}=\frac{|u|^{q_{\beta}-2}u}{|x|^{\beta}}\quad\textrm{in $\Omega$,}} $$ when $\Omega$ is a bounded domain and $N\geq 5$,…

Let $\alpha,\beta \in \mathbb{R}_{>0}$ be such that $\alpha,\beta$ are quadratic and $\mathbb{Q}(\alpha)\neq \mathbb{Q}(\beta)$. Then every subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ definable in both $(\mathbb{R},{<},+,\mathbb{Z},x\mapsto \alpha x)$ and…

While solving a special case of a question of Erd\H{o}s and Graham Steinerberger asks for all integers $n$ with $\phi(n)=\frac{2}{3} \cdot (n+1)$. He discovered the solutions $n\in\{5, 5 \cdot 7, 5\cdot 7\cdot 37, 5\cdot 7\cdot 37\cdot…

A classical theorem of S. Bochner states that a function $f:R^n \to C$ is the Fourier transform of a finite Borel measure if and only if $f$ is positive definite. In 1938, I. Schoenberg found a beautiful complement to Bochner's theorem. We…

For $q \in (0, 1)$, the deformed exponential function $f(x) = \sum_{n \geq 1} x^n q^{n(n-1)/2}/n!$ is known to have infinitely many simple and negative zeros $\{x_k(q)\}_{k \geq 1}$. In this paper, we analyze the series expansions of…
