A Survey of Total Positivity

This paper contains an exposition of the classical work of Schoenberg and Gantmacher, Krein on the theory of totally positive matrices. It also contains a generalization of this theory to the Lie theoretic context and an application to the recent results of Fock and Goncharov on Teichmüller theory.
