Title in Portuguese
Harmônicos esféricos e funções definidas positivas
Keywords in Portuguese
Esferas
Espaços harmônicos Esféricos
Funções definidas positivas
Operadores integral e diferencial
Polinômios de Gegenbauer
Abstract in Portuguese
Estudamos sistematicamente os espaços harmônicos esféricos, os quais fornecem uma decomposição ortogonal para os espaços de Hilbert L2(Sd) das funções de quadrado integrável sobre a esfera unitária real d-dimensional Sd. Também estudamos propriedades dos polinômios de Legendre associados ao parâmetro d e de funções definidas positivas, com enfoque especial nas funções definidas positivas em Sd (d ≥ 2). Estas funções possuem uma expansão em série de polinômios de Gegenbauer associados ao parâmetro (d – 1) / 2, os quais são múltiplos dos polinômios de Legendre associados a (d+1), e surgem em diversas aplicações, como por exemplo em geoestatística e em problemas de interpolação. Como uma aplicação, apresentamos o operador integral e o operador diferencial, do tipo Montée e Descente, que quando aplicados em uma função definida positiva em Sd, preservam a propriedade de positividade definida alterando porém a dimensão da esfera para d+2 e d – 2, respectivamente.

Abstract in English
We systematically study the spherical harmonic spaces, which provide an orthogonal decomposition for the Hilbert spaces L2(Sd) of the square integrable functions defined in the unit real d-dimensional sphere Sd. We also study some properties of the Legendre polynomials associated to the parameter d and of positive definite functions, with emphasis on the positive definite functions on Sd (d ≥ 2). These functions can be expanded in series of Gegenbauer polynomials associated to the parameter (d – 1) / 2, which are multiples of the Legendre polynomials associated to (d+1), and arise in several application, for instance in geostatistics and in interpolation problems. As an application, we present integral and differential operators, called of Montée and Descente, which, applied to a positive definite function on Sd, preserve the positive definiteness property but changing the dimension of the sphere to d+2 or d – 2, respectively
