Binary quadratic Diophantine equations are of interest from the viewpoint of computational complexity theory. They contain as special cases many examples of natural problems apparantly occupying intermediate stages in the P-NP hierarchy,…
The classes of sums of arithmetic-geometric exponentials (SAGE) and of sums of nonnegative circuit polynomials (SONC) provide nonnegativity certificates which are based on the inequality of the arithmetic and geometric means. We study the…
It is shown that the polynomial \[p(t) = \text{Tr}[(A+tB)^m]\] has positive coefficients when $m = 6$ and $A$ and $B$ are any two 3-by-3 complex Hermitian positive definite matrices. This case is the first that is not covered by prior,…
We exhibit a lower-triangular matrix of polynomials $T(a,c,d,e,f,g)$ in six indeterminates that appears empirically to be coefficientwise totally positive, and which includes as a special case the Eulerian triangle. We prove the…
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 provide a partial classification of positive linear maps in matrix algebras which is based on a family of spectral conditions. This construction generalizes celebrated Choi example of a map which is positive but not completely positive.…
This paper considers some work done by the author and Catlin [CD1,CD2,CD3] concerning positivity conditions for bihomogeneous polynomials and metrics on bundles over certain complex manifolds. It presents a simpler proof of a special case…
In this work we establish a connection between copositivity, that is, nonnegativity on the positive orthant, of sparse real Laurent polynomials and discriminants. Specifically, we consider Laurent polynomials in the positive orthant with…
In this paper we give a first study of perfect copositive $n \times n$ matrices. They can be used to find rational certificates for completely positive matrices. We describe similarities and differences to classical perfect, positive…
A linear map $\Phi$ between matrix spaces is called cross-positive if it is positive on orthogonal pairs $(U,V)$ of positive semidefinite matrices in the sense that $\langle U,V\rangle:=\text{Tr}(UV)=0$ implies $\langle…
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 give a short proof of a recent result of Drury on the positivity of a $3\times 3$ matrix of the form $(\|R_i^*R_j\|_{\rm tr})_{1 \le i, j \le 3}$ for any rectangular complex (or real) matrices $R_1, R_2, R_3$ so that the multiplication…
B{\'e}zout 's theorem states that dense generic systems of n multivariate quadratic equations in n variables have 2 n solutions over algebraically closed fields. When only a small subset M of monomials appear in the equations (fewnomial…
We study the problem of computing weighted sum-of-squares (WSOS) certificates for positive polynomials over a compact semialgebraic set. Building on the theory of interior-point methods for convex optimization, we introduce the concept of…
In this paper we give a version of Krivine-Stengle's Positivstellensatz, Schweighofer's Positivstellensatz, Scheiderer's local-global principle, Scheiderer's Hessian criterion and Marshall's boundary Hessian conditions for polynomial…
We show that for every subset $E$ of positive density in the set of integer square-matrices with zero traces, there exists an integer $k \geq 1$ such that the set of characteristic polynomials of matrices in $E-E$ contains the set of…
In (Davis and Papp, 2022), the authors introduced the concept of dual certificates of (weighted) sum-of-squares polynomials, which are vectors from the dual cone of weighted sums of squares (WSOS) polynomials that can be interpreted as…
Computational problem certificates are additional data structures for each output, which can be used by a-possibly randomized-verification algorithm that proves the correctness of each output. In this paper, we give an algorithm that…
We show that a formal power series in $2N$ non-commuting indeterminates is a positive non-commutative kernel if and only if the kernel on $N$-tuples of matrices of any size obtained from this series by matrix substitution is positive. We…
It is proven that a certain class of positive maps in the matrix algebra $M_n$ consists of optimal maps, i.e. maps from which one cannot subtract any completely positive map without loosing positivity. This class provides a generalization…
