The purpose of this note is to establish, in terms of the primary coefficients in the framework of the tridiagonal theory developed by Delsarte and Genin in the environment of nonnegative definite Toeplitz matrices, necessary and sufficient…
Real Nullstellensatz is a classical result from Real Algebraic Geometry. It has recently been extended to quaternionic polynomials by Alon and Paran. The aim of this paper is to extend their Quaternionic Nullstellensatz to matrix…
Typestate systems ensure many desirable properties of imperative programs, including initialization of object fields and correct use of stateful library interfaces. Abstract sets with cardinality constraints naturally generalize typestate…
We continue the study of real polynomials acting entrywise on matrices of fixed dimension to preserve positive semidefiniteness, together with the related analysis of order properties of Schur polynomials. Previous work has shown that,…
We construct a convergent family of outer approximations for the problem of optimizing polynomial functions over convex bodies subject to polynomial constraints. This is achieved by generalizing the polarization hierarchy, which has…
Putinar's Positivstellensatz is a central theorem in real algebraic geometry. It states the following: If you have a set $S= \{ x \in R^n \ | \ g_1 (x) \geq 0, ... , g_m(x) \geq 0\}$ described by some real polynomials $g_i$, then every real…
Recently, the second and the third author developed sums of nonnegative circuit polynomials (SONC) as a new certificate of nonnegativity for real polynomials, which is independent of sums of squares. In this article we show that the SONC…
We introduce the concept of disjunctive sum of squares for certifying nonnegativity of polynomials. Unlike the popular sum of squares approach where nonnegativity is certified by a single algebraic identity, the disjunctive sum of squares…
Effective Positivstellens\"atze provide convergence rates for the moment-sum-of-squares (SoS) hierarchy for polynomial optimization (POP). In this paper, we add a qualitative property to the recent advances in those effective…
We present a uniform framework for establishing Nullstellens\"atze for power series rings using quantifier elimination results for valued fields. As an application we obtain Nullstellens\"atze for $p$-adic power series (both formal and…
We analyse the representation of positive polynomials in terms of Sums of Squares. We provide a quantitative version of Putinar's Positivstellensatz over a compact basic semialgebraic set S, with a new polynomial bound on the degree of the…
In a recent article we have discussed the connections between averages of powers of Riemann's $\zeta$-function on the critical line, and averages of characteristic polynomials of random matrices. The result for random matrices was shown to…
Recently, the conditional SAGE certificate has been proposed as a sufficient condition for signomial positivity over a convex set. In this article, we show that the conditional SAGE certificate is $\textit{complete}$. That is, for any…
We prove that all injective maps on positive complex matrices which preserve order and shrink spectrum are implemented by unitary or antiunitary conjugations. We show by counterexamples that all assumptions are indispensable. The result…
We give a general method for producing various effective Null and Positivstellens\"atze, and getting new Positivstellens\"atze in algebraically closed valued fields and ordered groups. These various effective Nullstellens\"atze produce…
We prove new upper bounds for the degrees in Hilbert's Nullstellensatz and for the Noether exponent of polynomial ideals in terms of the monomial structure of the polynomials involved. Our bounds improve the previously known bounds in the…
Using polynomial equations to model combinatorial problems has been a popular tool both in computational combinatorics as well as an approach to proving new theorems. In this paper, we look at several combinatorics problems modeled by…
We investigate the generalized moment membership problem for matrices, a formulation equivalent to Skolem's problem for linear recurrence sequences. We show decidability for orthogonal, unitary, and real eigenvalue matrices, and…
We propose to grok Lipschitz stratifications from a non-archimedean point of view and thereby show that they exist for closed definable sets in any power-bounded o-minimal structure on a real closed field. Unlike the previous approaches in…
Plausibility measures are structures for reasoning in the face of uncertainty that generalize probabilities, unifying them with weaker structures like possibility measures and comparative probability relations. So far, the theory of…
