Moment determinacy on a compact interval

ID: moment-determinacy-on-a-compact-interval

Two probability measures supported on one compact interval are equal if all their moments are equal. Indeed, equality on monomials gives equality on polynomials, the Weierstrass approximation theorem extends it to every continuous function on the interval, and compactly supported continuous functions determine a finite Borel measure.
