✦ Synopsis
We consider a generalization of Hausdor moment problem in which the inputs are generalized moments deÿned by n ≡ 1 0 x n [f(x)] d x (n = 1; 2; : : :) where is a real number and f(x) is the probability density function to be determined. The necessary and su cient conditions for the existence of the solution are established. The convergence of the sequence of solutions for the corresponding ÿnite problem, when the number of input moments increases, is also studied. We show how to construct this sequence by using a maximum-entropy principle which is based on Tsallis's family of entropies. The method is illustrated with a number of examples.

## Abstract We consider the problem of finding __u__ ∈ __L__ ^2^(__I__ ), __I__ = (0, 1), satisfying ∫~__I__~ __u__ (__x__ )__x__ d__x__ = __μ__ ~__k__~ , where __k__ = 0, 1, 2, …, (__α__ ~__k__~ ) is a sequence of distinct real numbers greater than –1/2, and **__μ__** = (__μ__ ~__kl__~ ) is a g
