Title: Symmetrically Positive Definite Functions
Authors: Tang, Lee-Man
Advisor: Stewart, J.
Department: Mathematics
Keywords: symmetrically, positive, definite, functions, theorems
Publication Date: Sep-1974
Abstract: <p> In this thesis we study the representation theorems for evenly positive definite functions on Euclidean spaces. A generalization of the concept of evenness on R^n to a concept of symmetry on any locally compact abelian group is given. In addition, a result analogous to the Weil-Povzner-Raikov Theorem is obtained for the representation of symmetrically positive definite functions on locally compact abelian groups.</p>
