These results are applied to reprove basic results on the complex moment problem due to Stochel and Szafraniec \\cite{stochelsz} and Bisgaard \\cite{bisgaard}.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-06-02T08:06:45.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "44A60", "14P10" ], "keywords": [ "moment sequences", "extensions", "characterization", "complex moment problem", "finitely generated real unital algebras" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1406.0282S" } } }
