The Moment Problem for Continuous Positive Semidefinite Linear functionals
Let be a locally convex topology on the countable dimensional
polynomial -algebra \rx:=\reals[X_1,...,X_n]. Let be a closed
subset of , and let be a finitely generated
quadratic module in \rx. We investigate the following question: When is the
cone \Pos(K) (of polynomials nonnegative on ) included in the closure of
? We give an interpretation of this inclusion with respect to representing
continuous linear functionals by measures. We discuss several examples; we
compute the closure of M=\sos with respect to weighted norm- topologies.
We show that this closure coincides with the cone \Pos(K) where is a
certain convex compact polyhedron.Comment: 14 page
