Abstract:
For a certain constant (a little less than ), every function satisfying , , is a Stieltjes indeterminate Stieltjes moment sequence. For every indeterminate moment sequence there is a positive definite matrix sequence which is not of positive type and which satisfies , . For a certain constant (a little greater than ), for every function satisfying , , there is a convolution semigroup of measures on , with moments of all orders, such that , , and for every such convolution semigroup the measure is Stieltjes indeterminate for all .
