In mathematics, the Stieltjes moment problem, named after Thomas Joannes Stieltjes, seeks necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence (m0, m1, m2, ...) to be of the form m n = ∫ 0 ∞ x n d μ ( x ) {\displaystyle m_{n}=\int _{0}^{\infty }x^{n}\,d\mu (x)} for some measure μ. If such a function μ exists, one asks whether it is unique.
