Kernel absolute summability is only sufficient for RKHS stability
Regularized approaches have been successfully applied to linear system identification in recent years. Many of them model unknown impulse responses exploiting the so called Reproducing Kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) that enjoy the notable property of being in one-to-one correspondence with the class of positive semidefinite kernels. The necessary and sufficient condition for a RKHS to be stable, i.e. to contain only BIBO stable linear dynamic systems, has been known in the literature at least since 2006. However, an open question still persists and concerns the equivalence of such condition with the absolute summability of the kernel. This paper provides a definite answer to this matter by proving that such correspondence does not hold. A counterexample is introduced that illustrates the existence of stable RKHSs that are induced by non-absolutely summable kernels.

Absolute integrability of Mercer kernels is only sufficient for RKHS stability
Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) are special Hilbert spaces in one-to-one correspondence with positive definite maps called kernels. They are widely employed in machine learning to reconstruct unknown functions …
On the stability test for reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces
Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) are special Hilbert spaces where all the evaluation functionals are linear and bounded. They are in one-to-one correspondence with positive definite maps called kernels. Stable R…
Mathematical foundations of stable RKHSs
Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) are key spaces for machine learning that are becoming popular also for linear system identification. In particular, the so-called stable RKHSs can be used to model absolutely sum…

Embeddings of random variables in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) may be used to conduct statistical inference based on higher order moments. For sufficiently rich (characteristic) RKHSs, each probability distr…
The connection between Bayesian estimation of a Gaussian random field and RKHS
Reconstruction of a function from noisy data is often formulated as a regularized optimization problem over an infinite-dimensional reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). The solution describes the observed data and ha…
