We show that an irreducible polynomial $p$ with no zeros on the closure of a matrix unit polyball, a.k.a. a cartesian product of Cartan domains of type I, and such that $p(0)=1$, admits a strictly contractive determinantal representation,…
We show that for a multivariable polynomial $p(z)=p(z_1, \ldots , z_d)$ with a determinantal representation $$ p(z) = p(0) \det (I_n- K (\oplus_{j=1}^d z_j I_{n_j}))$$ the matrix $K$ is structurally similar to a strictly $J$-contractive…
For every bivariate polynomial $p(z_1, z_2)$ of bidegree $(n_1, n_2)$, with $p(0,0)=1$, which has no zeros in the open unit bidisk, we construct a determinantal representation of the form $$p(z_1,z_2)=\det (I - K Z),$$ where $Z$ is an…

Given a proper cone $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, a multivariate polynomial $f \in \mathbb{C}[z] = \mathbb{C}[z_1, \ldots, z_n]$ is called $K$-stable if it does not have a root whose vector of the imaginary parts is contained in the interior…
We call a multivariable polynomial an Agler denominator if it is the denominator of a rational inner function in the Schur-Agler class, an important subclass of the bounded analytic functions on the polydisk. We give a necessary and…

Let D be a domain with quotient field K and A a D-algebra. We call a polynomial with coefficients in K that maps every element of A to an element of A "integer-valued on A". For commutative A we also consider integer-valued polynomials in…

We introduce certain quiver analogue of the determinantal variety. We study the Kempf-Lascoux-Weyman's complex associated to a line bundle on the variety. In the case of generalized Kronecker quivers, we give a sufficient condition on when…

The determinantal complexity of a polynomial $P \in \mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ is the dimension of the smallest matrix $M$ whose entries are affine functions in $\mathbb{F}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ such that $P =…
In this paper, we consider the problem of representing a multivariate polynomial as the determinant of a definite (monic) symmetric/Hermitian linear matrix polynomial (LMP). Such a polynomial is known as determinantal polynomial.…
The observational characteristics of a linear structural equation model can be effectively described by polynomial constraints on the observed covariance matrix. However, these polynomials can be exponentially large, making them impractical…
Every polynomial of the form $P=(x+1)(x^{n-1}+c_1x^{n-2}+\cdots +c_{n-1})$ is representable as Schur-Szeg\H{o} composition of $n-1$ polynomials of the form $(x+1)^{n-1}(x+a_i)$, where the numbers $a_i$ are unique up to permutation. We give…
