The BMV conjecture states that for $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ the function $f_{A,B}(t)=trace{\, } e^{tA+B}$ is exponentially convex. Recently the BMV conjecture was proved by Herbert Stahl. The proof of Herbert Stahl is…

The Bessis-Moussa-Villani conjecture states that the trace of $\exp(A-tB)$ is, as a function of the real variable $t$, the Laplace transform of a positive measure, where $A$ and $B$ are respectively a hermitian and positive semi-definite…

A long-standing conjecture asserts that the polynomial \[p(t) = \text{Tr}[(A+tB)^m]\] has nonnegative coefficients whenever $m$ is a positive integer and $A$ and $B$ are any two $n \times n$ positive semidefinite Hermitian matrices. The…

The Bessis-Moussa-Villani (BMV) conjecture, originating in quantum statistical mechanics, was proved by Stahl after an influential reformulation by Lieb and Seiringer. A later refinement asks whether the normalized average over all words…

We find further implications of the BMV conjecture, which states that for hermitian matrices A and B, the function Tr exp(A - t B) is the Laplace transform of a positive measure.

We prove the BMV (Bessis, Moussa, Villani, 1975) conjecture, which states that the function t -> Tr exp(A-tB), t \geq 0, is the Laplace transform of a positive measure on [0,\infty) if A and B are n x n Hermitian matrices and B is positive…

Consider the polynomial $tr (A + tB)^m$ in $t$ for positive hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ with $m \in \N$. The Bessis-Moussa-Villani conjecture (in the equivalent form of Lieb and Seiringer) states that this polynomial has nonnegative…

We show that for fixed $A,B$, hermitian nonnegative definite matrices, and fixed $k$ the coefficients of the $t^k$ in the polynomial $\tr (A+tB)^m$ is positive if $\tr AB >0$ and $m>N(A,B,k)$.

The BMV conjecture for traces, which states that $Tr exp(A -\lambda B)$ is the Laplace transform of a positive measure, is shown to be equivalent to two other statements: (i) The polynomial $\lambda\mapsto Tr(A+\lambda B)^p$ has only…
