An extension of a theorem of Schoenberg to products of spheres (Q307025)

Isotropy and positive definiteness for kernels on single sphere were considered by \textit{I. J. Schoenberg} [Duke Math. J. 9, 96--108 (1942; Zbl 0063.06808)]. The authors extend Schoenberg's theorem to a product of spheres \(S^{m}\times S^{M}\), when \(m,M\) are both finite and also in the case where either \(m=\infty\) or \(M=\infty\).
