Abstract

We propose necessary and sufficient conditions for a distribution (generalized function) $f$ of several variables to be positive definite. For this purpose, certain analytic extensions of $f$ to tubular domains in complex space $\mathbb{C}^n$ are studied. The main result is given in terms of completely monotonic functions on convex cones in $\mathbb{R}^n$.
