In this article, we prove a generalisation of Bochner-Godement theorem. Our result deals with Olshanski spherical pairs defined as inductive limits of increasing sequences of Gelfand pairs . By using the integral representation theory of G. Choquet on convex cones, we establish a Bochner type representation of any element of the set of -biinvariant continuous functions of positive type on .
The aim of the paper is to present some initial results about a possible generalization of moment sequences to a so-called q-calculus. A characterization of such a q-analogue in terms of appropriate positivity conditions is also investigated. Using the result due to Maserick and Szafraniec, we adapt a classical description of Hausdorff moment sequences in terms of positive definiteness and complete monotonicity to the q-situation. This makes a link between q-positive definiteness and q-complete...
The aim of this paper is to give a q-analogue for complete monotonicity. We apply a classical characterization of Hausdorff moment sequences in terms of positive definiteness and complete monotonicity, adapted to the q-situation. The method due to Maserick and Szafraniec that does not need moments turns out to be useful. A definition of a q-moment sequence appears as a by-product.
The first explicit example of a positive semidefinite double sequence which is not a moment sequence was given by Friedrich. We present an example with a simpler definition and more moderate growth as .
