%0 Journal Article %T Total positivity in stable semigroups %A Thomas Simon %J Mathematics %D 2014 %I arXiv %X We characterize the total positivity in space-time of real strictly stable semigroups. In the positive case, this solves a problem which had been raised by Karlin. In the drifted Cauchy case, this concludes a study which we had initiated in a previous paper. The case of isotropic stable semigroups is also investigated. We apply these results to the bell-shape and monotone likelihood properties of certain real stable densities. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1412.0132v1
