Abstract

We propose convex optimization algorithms to recover a good approximation of a point measure μ on the unit sphere S⊆ ℝn from its moments with respect to a set of real-valued functions f1,…, fm. Given a finite subset C⊆ S the algorithm produces a measure μ^* supported on C and we prove that μ^* is a good approximation to μ whenever the functions f1,…, fm are a sufficiently large random sample of independent Kostlan-Shub-Smale polynomials. More specifically, we give sufficient conditions for the validity of the equality μ=μ^* when μ is supported on C and prove that μ^* is close to the best approximation to μ supported on C provided that all points in the support of μ are close to C.
