In this paper we present a special kind of real symmetric matrices: the real symmetric doubly arrow matrices. That is, matrices which look like two arrow matrices, forward and backward, with heads against each other at the station, . We study a kind of inverse eigenvalue problem and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of such matrices.

The identification mentioned in the title allows a formulation of the multidimensional Favard lemma different from the ones currently used in the literature and which parallels the original 1-dimensional formulation in the sense that the positive Jacobi sequence is replaced by a sequence of positive Hermitean (square) matrices and the real Jacobi sequence by a sequence of positive definite kernels. The above result opens the way to the program of a purely algebraic classification of probability measures on [Formula: see text] with moments of any order and more generally of states on the polynomial algebra on [Formula: see text]. The quantum decomposition of classical real-valued random variables with all moments is one of the main ingredients in the proof.

In the present paper we have extended generalized Laplace transforms of Joshi to the space ofm×msymmetric matrices using the confluent hypergeometric function of matrix argument defined by Herz as kernel. Our extension is given byg(z)=Γm(α)Γm(β)∫∧>01F1(α:β:−∧z) f(∧)d∧The convergence of this integral under various conditions has also been discussed. The real and complex inversion theorems for the transform have been proved and it has also been established that Hankel transform of functions of matrix argument are limiting cases of the generalized Laplace transforms.
