The singular Embry quartic moment problem (Q815966): Difference between revisions

For \(n \in {\mathbb N}\), let \(m:= ([ n/2 +1])([(n+1)/2]+1)\). For a collection of complex numbers \(\gamma \equiv \{ \gamma_{ij} \}\) (\(0 \leq i+j \leq 2n \), \( | i-j| \leq n \)) with \(\gamma_{00}>0\) and \(\gamma_{ji}= \overline{\gamma_{ij}}\), the moment (\(m\times m\))-matrix \(E(n)\) is defined as \[ E(n)_{(k,l)(i,j)} := \gamma_{l+i,j+k}. \] For example, if \(n=2\), we have \[ \gamma \equiv \gamma_{00}, \;\gamma_{01}, \;\gamma_{10}, \;\gamma_{02}, \;\gamma_{11}, \;\gamma_{20}, \;\gamma_{12}, \;\gamma_{21}, \;\gamma_{13}, \;\gamma_{22}, \;\gamma_{31}, \] and \(E(2)\) is the \(4 \times 4\)-matrix given by \[ E(2) = \left(\gamma_{00}, \;\gamma_{01}, \;\gamma_{02}, \;\gamma_{11}; \;\gamma_{10}, \;\gamma_{11}, \;\gamma_{12}, \;\gamma_{21}; \gamma_{20}, \;\gamma_{21},\;\gamma_{22}, \;\gamma_{31}; \;\gamma_{11}, \;\gamma_{12}, \;\gamma_{13}, \;\gamma_{22} \right). \] The (Embry) truncated complex moment entails finding a positive Borel measure \(\mu\) (called representing measure for \(\gamma\)) supported in the complex plane such that \[ \gamma_{ij} =\int \overline{z} z^j d \mu (z) \qquad (0 \leq i+j \leq 2n, \;| i-j| \leq n ). \] The Embry quartic moment problem (\(n=1\)) was solved completely by \textit{C. Li} and \textit{M. Cho} [Sci. Math. Jpn. 57, No.~3, 559--567 (2003; Zbl 1048.44002)]. In the present paper, the author gives a solution for the singular case (\(n=2\)). According to the ranks of \(E(2)\), he obtains concrete results and gives examples of the situation.
