Strict Positive Definiteness of a Product of Covariance Functions

open access: yesCommunications in Statistics - Theory and Methods, 2011
Positive definiteness represents an admissibility condition for a function to be a covariance. Nevertheless, the more restricted condition of strict positive definiteness has received attention in literature, especially in spatial statistics, since it ...

On Dugundji’s notion of positive definiteness

open access: yesProceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 1974
Dugundji’s notion of positive definiteness is generalized to nonnegative real-valued functions on a uniform space. Its relations with completeness and various notions of compactness are investigated.

Verification of positive definiteness

open access: yesBIT Numerical Mathematics, 2006
We present a computational, simple and fast sufficient criterion to verify positive definiteness of a symmetric or Hermitian matrix. The criterion uses only standard floating-point operations in rounding to nearest, it is rigorous, it takes into account ...

Positive Definiteness of a Class of Cyclic Symmetric Tensors

open access: yesJournal of Optimization Theory and Applications
For a 4th order 3-dimensional cyclic symmetric tensor, a sufficient and necessary condition is bulit for its positive semi-definiteness. A sufficient and necessary condition of positive definiteness is showed for a 4th order $n$-dimensional symmetric ...

Transporting positive definiteness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
This is a rough guide to the topic which might be worthy to develop further on. Expanding positive definiteness beyond its presupposed scope is intriguing due to a number of possible applications. The paper though looking at the first glance a little bit

Positive Definiteness of Symmetric Rank 1 (H-Version) Update for Unconstrained Optimization

open access: yesمجلة بغداد للعلوم, 2022
Several attempts have been made to modify the quasi-Newton condition in order to obtain rapid convergence with complete properties (symmetric and positive definite) of the inverse of  Hessian matrix (second derivative of the objective function).

Positive definiteness: from scalar to operator-valued kernels [PDF]

open access: yesSurveys in Mathematics and its Applications, 2021
In this paper we present a short overview of results that provide relationships among scalar, matrix-valued and certain operator-valued positive definite kernels.

Positive definiteness in coupled strain gradient elasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
The linear theory of coupled gradient elasticity has been considered for hemitropic second gradient materials, specifically the positive definiteness of the strain and strain gradient energy density, which is assumed to be a quadratic form of the strain ...

Positive Inductive-Recursive Definitions [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2013
A new theory of data types which allows for the definition of types as initial algebras of certain functors Fam(C) -> Fam(C) is presented. This theory, which we call positive inductive-recursive definitions, is a generalisation of Dybjer and Setzer's theory of inductive-recursive definitions within which C had to be discrete -- our work can ...

On a Class of Positive Definite Operators and Their Application in Fractional Calculus

open access: yesAxioms, 2022
This paper is devoted to the spectral analysis of one class of integral operators, associated with the boundary value problems for differential equations of fractional order. Approximation matrices are also investigated.
