| | This post is mainly devoted to a probabilistic proof of a famous theorem due to Schoenberg on radial positive definite functions. Let us begin with a general notion: we say that \( {K:\mathbb{R}^d\times\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}} \) is a positive definite kernel when \[ \forall n\geq1, \forall x_1,\ldots,x_n\in\mathbb{R}^d, \forall c\in\mathbb{C}^n, \quad\sum_{i=1}^n\sum_{j=1}^nc_iK(x_i,x_j)\bar{c}_j\geq0. \] When \( {K} \) is symmetric, i.e. \( {K(x,y)=K(y,x)} \) for...

| For a polynomial $latex \notag \phi(t) = a_kt^k + \cdots + a_1t + a_0, $ where $latex a_k\in\mathbb{C}$ for all $latex k$, the matrix polynomial obtained by evaluating $latex \phi$ at $latex A\in\mathbb{C}^{n \times n}$ is $latex \notag \phi(A) = a_kA^k + \cdots + a_1A + a_0 I. $ (Note that the constant term is...
