“…The class of SGCS metrics on E will be denoted P S 2 (X, E). Definition 2.10 is due essentially to Catlin and D'Angelo [CD2]. The main difference is that they do not include property (S3) in the definition, but make it a hypothesis in the following theorem.…”

“…Catlin and D'Angelo deduce Theorem 2.9 from a more powerful theorem (stated as Theorem 2.11 below), which is the main result in the same paper [CD2]. A key tool they use is a theorem of Catlin [C] regarding the asymptotic expansion of the Bergman kernel.…”
Hermitian algebraic functions were introduced by D. Catlin and J. D'Angelo under the name of "globalizable metrics". Catlin and D'Angelo proved that any Hermitian algebraic function without nontrivial zeros is a quotient of squared norms, thus giving an answer to a Hermitian analogue of Hilbert's 17th problem in the nondegenerate case. The result was independently proved somewhat earlier by D. Quillen in a special case, and using different methods. In this paper, we characterize all Hermitian algebraic functions that are quotients of squared norms.

“…The proof in [6] uses the Bergman projection and some facts about compact operators, and it generalizes to provide an isometric imbedding theorem for certain holomorphic vector bundles [7]. It is worth noting that the integer k and the number of components of h can be arbitrarily large, even for polynomials p of total degree four in two variables.…”

PreliminariesLet C d denote complex Euclidean space with Euclidean norm given by |z| 2 = d j=1 |z j | 2 . The unit, odd dimensional sphereis a particularly important example of a Cauchy-Riemann (usually abbreviated CR) manifold. This note will show how one can study problems of polynomial optimization over semi-algebraic subsets of S 2d−1 by using the induced CauchyRiemann structure. Our results can be regarded as multivariate analogues of classical phenomena about positive trigonometric polynomials, known for a long time in dimension one (d = 1). They are also related to results concerning proper holomorphic mappings between balls in different dimensional complex Euclidean spaces and the geometry of holomorphic vector bundles.
“…On a more recent date such structures have recurrently appeared in the geometric aspects of the theory of functions of several complex variables, see for instance [4].…”
Abstract. We compare three levels of algebraic certificates for evaluating the maximum modulus of a complex analytic polynomial, on a compact semi-algebraic set. They are obtained as translations of some recently discovered inequalities in operator theory. Although they can be stated in purely algebraic terms, the only known proofs for these decompositions have a transcendental character.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
