I might be mistaken, but I didn't think that Polyharmonic splines actually do guarantee that the linear system matrix is positive definite, just that it's nonsingular. For example, consider phi(r) = r with centers 0 and 1; the matrix is
which is not positive definite:
Can somebody with more experience than I verify this?

Clarification on additional constraints[edit]
In the section 'additional constraints' two systems of linear equations are derived:
and
Then it is stated that is invertible. Is this actually true? Why?
