Complex moment problem and recursive relations
Abstract
We introduce a new methodology to solve the truncated complex moment problem. To this aim we investigate recursive doubly indexed sequences and their characteristic polynomials. A characterization of recursive doubly indexed \emph{moment} sequences is given. A simple application gives a computable solution to the complex moment problem for cubic harmonic characteristic polynomials of the form $z^3+az+b\overline{z}$, where $a$ and $b$ are arbitrary real numbers. We also recapture a recent result due to Curto-Yoo given for cubic column relations in $M(3)$ of the form $Z^3=itZ+u\overline{Z}$ with $t,u$ real numbers satisfying some suitable inequalities. Furthermore, we solve the truncated complex moment problem with column dependence relations of the form $Z^{k+1}= \sum\limits_{0\leq n+ m \leq k} a_{nm} \overline{Z}^n Z^m$ ($a_{nm} \in \mathbb{C}$).
Key words: Complex moment problem, cubic column relation, recursive doubly indexed sequence, characteristic polynomials in two variables.
