Abstract

The problem of completing a partially prescribed Toeplitz matrix to a positive definite Toeplitz matrix is considered. The main result is a characterization of the patterns of specified entries that guarantee the existence of a positive definite Toeplitz completion of a partial positive definite Toeplitz matrix. This characterization resolves affirmatively a conjecture of C. R. Johnson and L. Rodman.
