Abstract
Identifying (conditionally) strictly positive definite functions is of great importance as they allow the unique solution of certain interpolation problems. We introduce new sufficient (and some necessary) conditions for functions to be conditionally strictly positive definite on all spheres Sd-1, d > 2, only employing monotonicity properties. For strictly positive definite and conditionally negative definite functions on all spheres we give a characterisation in terms of monotonicity properties. Further, we prove that multiply monotone functions are positive definite on spheres up to a certain dimension. (C) 2020 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
