We develop several methods of realization of scalar product and generalized moment problems. Constructions are made by use of a Hilbertian method or a fixed point method. The constructed solutions are rational fractions and exponentials of polynomials. They are connected to entropy maximization. We give the general form of the maximizing solution. We show how it is deduced from the maximizing solution of the algebraic moment problem.
Entropy maximization subject to known expected values is extended to the case where the random variables involved may take on positive infinite values. As a result, an arbitrary probability distribution on a finite set may be realized as a canonical distribution. The Rényi entropy of the distribution arises as a natural by-product of this realization. Starting with the uniform distributionon a proper subset of a set, the canonical distribution of equilibriumstatistical mechanics may be used to exhibit an elementary phase transition, characterized by discontinuity of the partition function.
