Semi-groupes de moments sur \({\mathbb{R}}^ p\) et \({\mathbb{C}}^ p\) (Q1077665)

The author completely resolves the classical semigroup moment problem on the spaces \({\mathbb{R}}^ p\) and \({\mathbb{C}}^ p:\) Let \({\mathfrak M}\) be the space of all sequences (moments) of the type \(\alpha_ n=\int t^ n d\mu (t)\) where \(n=(n_ 1,...,n_ p)\in {\mathbb{N}}^ p\), \(t=(t_ 1,...,t_ p)\in {\mathbb{R}}^ p\), \(\mu\) (t) be a positive measure on \({\mathbb{R}}^ p\). The real semigroup moment problem consists in determining all sequences \(\beta_ n\) \((n\in {\mathbb{N}}^ p)\) such that \(\alpha_ n=\exp \beta_ nt\in {\mathfrak M}\) for every \(t\geq 0\). The paper contains explicit formulae for these \(\beta_ n\) and two other necessary and sufficient conditions \(\sum \beta_ k u_ k\geq 0\) and/or \(\sum_{k}u_ k \beta_{n+k}\in {\mathfrak M}\), for every nonnegative polynomial \(P=\sum u_ k t^ k\) with \(P(1)=0\). Quite analogously, the complex semigroup moment problem is concerned with the sequence \(\alpha_{m,n}=\int z^ m \bar z^ n d\mu (z)\), where \(\mu\) (z) is a positive measure on the space \({\mathbb{C}}^ p\) and the derived results are of the same type as above.
