Overview
Abstract
We give an explicit curvature argument for three-point positivity of weighted products of the Riemann theta density. For every alpha at least 5/8 and every nonnegative Borel center measure with a finite positive integral of Phi^(2alpha), the averaged product Phi(s+t/2)^alpha Phi(s-t/2)^alpha has positive definite three-point translation matrices at distinct real positions. Repeated positions give positive semidefinite matrices. A general curvature criterion combines with positive-Laplace estimates for the complete theta-series tail; all infinite-tail bounds and rational interval estimates are explicit. Positive definiteness of arbitrary order is not established.

Scope of the work
For the complete positive even Riemann theta density Phi, every alpha>=5/8 and every nonnegative Borel center measure nu with 0<integral Phi^(2alpha)dnu<infinity give strict positive-definite translation matrices on every distinct real triple for H(t)=integral Phi(s+t/2)^alpha Phi(s-t/2)^alpha dnu(s); repetitions PSD. General sufficient criterion k=-(log phi)second>0 and0<=ksecond<=2k^2 proved on R. Correct derivative-normalized y=0 limit included. Three-point only; density powers before averaging; alpha5/8 sufficient not optimal. Umihara qualitative sign and classical angle geometry credited. No fullPD/Fourier/RH/worldwidepriority claim. Odd-quintic and rank-five results not package members.
