Abstract

In this paper we provide a way to construct new moment sequences from a given moment sequence. An operator based on multivariate positive polynomials is applied to get new moment sequences. A class of new sequences is corresponding to a unique symmetric polynomial; if this polynomial is positive, then the new sequence becomes again a moment sequence. We will see for instance that a new sequence generated from minors of a Hankel matrix of a Stieltjes moment sequence is also a Stieltjes moment sequence.
