Do kernels provide a basis for a RKHS?

Let $H$ be a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space with elements $f:X\rightarrow \mathbb{C}$, with kernel $K(x, y)$. My question is whether, for some choice of $x_i\in X$, it is the case that $u_i:=K(x_i, \...

Orthonormal bases in RKHSs via interpolating sequences

Definitions and setting Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a separable, infinite-dimensional, reproducing kernel Hilbert space on a nonempty set $X$. As usual, denote the reproducing kernel on $\mathcal{H}$ by $K$ ...

RKHS lying in another RKHS

Suppose $H_1$ and $H_2$ are reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces such that $H_1 \subset H_2$. For $f \in H_1$, when can I bound $\|f \|_1$ with $C\|f\|_2$ (for some $C$)? Is there a relationship between ...

What is lost after RKHS embedding of the L1 space?

We know that every distribution or $L^1$ function $f$ over space $\mathcal{X}$ (e.g., $R^d$) can be embedded to an RKHS $\mathcal{H}$ with a $1$-bounded kernel $\mathcal{K}$ (e.g., the RBF kernel) ...

Proof: If a reproducing kernel exists for a Hilbert space, then it is unique

I really want to prove the statement in the title but I'm struggling with it. Here my current state: Proof via contradiction. Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a RKHS with two reproducing kernels $k$ and $\hat{k}$ ...

Subspace of RKHS generated by kernel mean embeddings

Suppose $\mathcal{H_k}$ is a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) with reproducing kernel $k: \mathcal{X} \times \mathcal{X} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. I am looking for results characterising the ...

What is the native Hilbert space associated with the kernel $\frac{\sum \min{(x_i,y_i)}}{\sum \max{(x_i,y_i)}}$?

In this answer on MSE it is shown that the function $$ K:(\mathbb{R}^{>0})^n\times (\mathbb{R}^{>0})^n\rightarrow\mathbb{R}\,\quad K(x,y)=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n\min{(x_i,y_i)}}{\sum_{i=1}^n\max{(x_i,...

$\ell_\infty$-norm covering number of RKHS ball $\{f\in\mathcal{H}: \|f\|_\mathcal{H} \leq R\}$

For any $\epsilon \in (0,1)$, let $N_\infty(\epsilon, \mathcal{H}, R)$ denote the $\epsilon$-covering number of the RKHS norm ball $\{f\in\mathcal{H}: \|f\|_\mathcal{H} \leq R\}$ with respect to the $\...

Simple (?) question on inner product in reproducing kernel Hilbert space

I'm following the gentle introduction to Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces From Zero to Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces in Twelve Pages or Less by Hal Daumé III. I believe the author fully ...

The multiplier algebra of a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space and its commutant

In my research in the theory of Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces I was concerned with this topic which came up but I could not find a reference on: If $ \mathbb{H} $ is an RKHS and we denote the ...

Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces with positive kernels

In my research I'm dealing with the following question. Let $E$ set, $K:E \times E \to \mathbb R$ a positive type function, and $\mathcal H := \mathcal H(1+K)$ (in the sense of the Moore theorem). ...

Injective inclusion map from RKHS function space to $L_p(\mu)$

Let $X$ be a measurable space, $\mu$ be a $\sigma$-finite measure on $X$, and $H$ be a separable reproducing kernel Hilbert space over $X$ with a measurable kernel $k$. At a certain part in a proof I ...

Karhunen-Loeve expansion for discrete-time process

Is there a Karhunen-Loeve theorem for discrete-time process? For example, let $\left\{X_i\right\}$ be a sequence of independent random variable which are uniformly distributed on the set $\{-1,1\}$. ...
