Abstract
We present a finite algorithm for the computation of any moment of
the solution (= the characteristic function of {p < 1}, with p a polynomial,
assumed to have isolated (complex) critical points) of the truncated ex-
tremal n-dimensional L-moment problem, linearly in terms of a finite set
of generating moments, in the context of dynamic (i.e. time-dependent)
moments. We find that a system of such generators is provided by the
moments corresponding to a basis for R[x1, ..., xn]/I p , where I p is the
gradient ideal of p. From this, based on the algebraic formalism for asymp-
totics of the Fourier transform (Malgrange, 1974), we obtain computations
for the coefficients of the asymptotic expansions for the moments in terms
of the generators and the monodromy of p.
