文摘Let m and n be fixed, positive integers and P a space composed of real polynomials in m variables. The authors study functions f : R →R which map Gram matrices, based upon n points of R^m, into matrices, which are nonnegative definite with respect to P Among other things, the authors discuss continuity, differentiability, convexity, and convexity in the sense of Jensen, of such functions
