Given the projections of two semialgebraic sets defined by polynomial matrix inequalities, it is in general difficult to determine whether one is contained in the other. To address this issue we propose a new matrix Positivstellensatz that…
This paper studies Positivstellens\"atze and moment problems for sets $K$ that are given by universal quantifiers. Let $Q$ be a closed set and let $g = (g_1,...,g_s)$ be a tuple of polynomials in two vector variables $x$ and $y$. Then $K$…

Strassen's Positivstellensatz is a powerful but little known theorem on preordered commutative semirings satisfying a boundedness condition similar to Archimedeanicity. It characterizes the relaxed preorder induced by all monotone…

The paper is concerned with various types of noncommutative Positivstellens\"atze for the matrix algebra $M_n(\cA)$, where $\cA$ is an algebra of operators acting on a unitary space, a path algebra, a cyclic algebra or a formally real…
A variant of the Archimedean Positivstellensatz is proved which is based on Archimedean semirings or quadratic modules of generating subalgebras. It allows one to obtain representations of strictly positive polynomials on compact…
Positivstellens{\"a}tze are a group of theorems on the positivity of involution algebras over $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. One of the most well-known Positivstellensatz is the solution to Hilbert's 17th problem given by E. Artin, which…
In recent years, techniques based on convex optimization and real algebra that produce converging hierarchies of lower bounds for polynomial minimization problems have gained much popularity. At their heart, these hierarchies rely crucially…
In this paper we develop a number of results and notions concerning Positivstellens\"atze for semirings (preprimes) of commutative unital real algebras. First we reduce the Archimedean Positivstellensatz for semirings to the corresponding…
The purpose of this paper is to give a characterization for polynomials and rational functions which admit only non-negative values on definable sets in real closed valued fields. That is, generalizing the relative positivstellens\"atze for…
