We establish general weak majorization inequalities, relating the leading exponents of the eigenvalues of matrices or matrix polynomials over the field of Puiseux series with the tropical analogues of eigenvalues. We also show that these…
The problem of when the vanishing of a (generalized) Schur complement of a block matrix (corresponding to the leading principal subblock) implies that the other (generalized) Schur complement (corresponding to the trailing principal…
We introduce a family of symmetric convex bodies called generalized ellipsoids of degree $d$ (GE-$d$s), with ellipsoids corresponding to the case of $d=0$. Generalized ellipsoids (GEs) retain many geometric, algebraic, and algorithmic…
We show that the zeros of random sequences of Gaussian systems of polynomials of increasing degree almost surely converge to the expected limit distribution under very general hypotheses. In particular, the normalized distribution of zeros…
This paper is a study of the interaction between the combinatorics of boundaries of convex polytopes in arbitrary dimension and their metric geometry. Let S be the boundary of a convex polytope of dimension d+1, or more generally let S be a…
We study a combinatorial notion where given a set of lattice points one takes the set of all sums of subsets of a fixed size, and we ask if the given set comes from a convex lattice polytope whether the resulting set also comes from a…
In this paper, we establish some local universality results concerning the correlation functions of the zeroes of random polynomials with independent coefficients. More precisely, consider two random polynomials $f =\sum_{i=1}^n c_i \xi_i…
Given polynomial maps $f, g \colon \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n,$ we consider the {\em polynomial complementary problem} of finding a vector $x \in \mathbb{R}^n$ such that \begin{equation*} f(x) \ \ge \ 0, \quad g(x) \ \ge \ 0, \quad…
Let $P$ be a bounded convex subset of $\mathbb R^n$ of positive volume. Denote the smallest degree of a polynomial $p(X_1,\dots,X_n)$ vanishing on $P\cap\mathbb Z^n$ by $r_P$ and denote the smallest number $u\geq0$ such that every function…
Given an arbitrary complex-valued infinite matrix A and a positive integer n we introduce a naturally associated polynomial basis B_A of C[x0...xn]. We discuss some properties of the locus of common zeros of all polynomials in B_A having a…
We propose an iterative algorithm for the numerical computation of sums of squares of polynomials approximating given data at prescribed interpolation points. The method is based on the definition of a convex functional $G$ arising from the…
In this paper we construct an explicit representative for the Grothendieck fundamental class [Z] of a complex submanifold Z of a complex manifold X, under the assumption that Z is the zero locus of a real analytic section of a holomorphic…
We utilize Cauchy's argument principle in combination with the Jacobian of a holomorphic function in several complex variables and the first moment of a ratio of two correlated complex normal random variables to prove explicit formulas for…
The classic Gauss-Lucas Theorem for complex polynomials of degree $d\ge2$ has a natural reformulation over quaternions, obtained via rotation around the real axis. We prove that such a reformulation is true only for $d=2$. We present a new…
We introduce a class of graphs called compound graphs, generalizing rectangles, which are constructed out of copies of a planar bipartite base graph. The main result is that the number of perfect matchings of every compound graph is…
Consider random polynomials of the form $G_n = \sum_{i=0}^n \xi_i p_i$, where the $\xi_i$ are i.i.d.\ non-degenerate complex random variables, and $\{p_i\}$ is a sequence of orthonormal polynomials with respect to a regular measure $\tau$…
The problem of writing real zero polynomials as determinants of linear matrix polynomials has recently attracted a lot of attention. Helton and Vinnikov have proved that any real zero polynomial in two variables has a determinantal…
Let $X$ be a vertex subset of a graph $G$. Then $u, v\in V(G)$ are $X$-positionable if $V(P)\cap X \subseteq \{u,v\}$ holds for any shortest $u,v$-path $P$. If each two vertices from $X$ are $X$-positionable, then $X$ is a general position…
In this paper, we focus on the study of immanantal polynomials for linear combination matrices composed of the degree matrix and adjacency matrix of a graph. First, applying the concept of vertex orientation for general graphs, we provide a…
In this article, we are interested in developing polynomial decomposition techniques based on sums-of-squares (SOS), namely the difference-of-sums-of-squares (D-SOS) and the difference-of-convex-sums-of-squares (DC-SOS). In particular, the…
