Stahl's theorem

Stahl's theorem In matrix analysis Stahl's theorem is a theorem proved in 2011 by Herbert Stahl concerning Laplace transforms for special matrix functions.[1] It originated in 1975 as the Bessis-Moussa-Villani (BMV) conjecture by Daniel Bessis, Pierre Moussa, and Marcel Villani.[2] In 2004 Elliott H. Lieb and Robert Seiringer gave two important reformulations of the BMV conjecture.[3] In 2015 Alexandre Eremenko gave a simplified proof of Stahl's theorem.[4] Statement of the theorem Let {displaystyle operatorname {tr} } denote the trace of a matrix. If A and B are n × n Hermitian matrices and B is positive semidefinite, define {displaystyle mathbf {f} } (t) = {displaystyle operatorname {tr(exp(A-tB))} } , for all real t ≥ 0. Then {displaystyle mathbf {f} } can be represented as the Laplace transform of a non-negative Borel measure μ on {displaystyle {[0,infty )}} . In other words, for all real t ≥ 0, {displaystyle mathbf {f} } (t) = {displaystyle int _{[0,infty )}e^{-ts},dmu (s)} , for some non-negative measure μ depending upon A and B.[5] References ^ Stahl, Herbert R.
