Moment problems (44A60)

Abstract: Let $mathcalA$ be a finite-dimensional subspace of $C(mathcalX;mathbbR)$, where $mathcalX$ is a locally compact Hausdorff space, and $mathsfA=f_1,dots,f_m$ a basis of $mathcalA$. A sequence $s=(s_j{)}_{j=1}^m$ is called a moment sequence if $s_j=int{f}_j(x),dmu(x)$, $j=1,dots,m$, for some positive Radon measure $mu$ on $mathcalX$. Each moment sequence $s$ has a finitely atomic representing measure $mu$. The smallest possible number of atoms is called the Carath'eodory number $mathcal{C}_{mathsfA}(s)$. The largest number $mathcal{C}_{mathsfA}(s)$ among all moment sequences $s$ is the Carath'eodory number $mathcal{C}_{mathsfA}$. In this paper the Carath'eodory numbers $mathcal{C}_{mathsfA}(s)$ and $mathcal{C}_{mathsfA}$ are studied. In the case of differentiable functions methods from differential geometry are used. The main emphasis is on real polynomials. For a large class of spaces of polynomials in one variable the number $mathcal{C}_{mathsfA}$ is determined. In the multivariate case we obtain some lower bounds and we use results on zeros of positive polynomials to derive upper bounds for the Carath'eodory numbers.
