We consider the problem of realizing hyperbolicity cones as spectrahedra, i.e. as linear slices of cones of positive semidefinite matrices. The generalized Lax conjecture states that this is always possible. We use generalized Clifford…

We show that any homogeneous polynomial solution of |\nabla F(x)|^2=m^2|x|^(2m-2), m>1, is either a radially symmetric polynomial F(x)=\pm |x|^m (for even m's) or it is a composition of a Chebychev polynomial and a Cartan-M\"unzner…
