Abstract

A major open question in convex algebraic geometry is whether all hyperbolicity cones are spectrahedral, i.e. the solution sets of linear matrix inequalities. We will use sum-of-squares decompositions of certain bilinear forms called Bézoutians to approach this problem. More precisely, we show that for every smooth hyperbolic polynomial h there is another hyperbolic polynomial q such that q⋅h has a definite determinantal representation. Besides commutative algebra, the proof relies on results from real algebraic geometry.
