# On determination of positive-definiteness for an anisotropic operator

On determination of positive-definiteness for an anisotropic operator We study the positive-definiteness of a family of $$L^2(\mathbb {R})$$ L 2 ( R ) integral operators with kernel $$K_{t, a} (x, y) = \pi ^{-1} (1 + (x - y)^2+ a(x^2 + y^2)^t)^{-1}$$ K t , a ( x , y ) = π - 1 ( 1 + ( x - y ) 2 + a ( x 2 + y 2 ) t ) - 1 , for $$t > 0$$ t > 0 and $$a > 0$$ a > 0 . For $$0 < t \le 1$$ 0 < t ≤ 1 and $$a > 0$$ a > 0 , the known theory of positive-definite kernels and conditionally negative-definite kernels confirms positive-definiteness. For $$t > 1$$ t > 1 and a sufficiently large, the integral operator is not positive-definite. For t not an integer, but with integer odd part, the integral operator is not positive-definite. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Positivity Springer Journals
