چکیده

In this paper, we conjecture a formula for the value of the Pythagoras number for real multivariate sum of squares polynomials as a function of the (total or coordinate) degree and the number of variables. The conjecture is based on the comparison between the number of parameters and the number of conditions for a corresponding low-rank representation. This is then numerically verified for a number of examples. Additionally, we discuss the Pythagoras number of (complex) multivariate Laurent polynomials that are sum of square magnitudes of polynomials on the n-torus. For both types of polynomials, we also propose an algorithm to numerically compute the Pythagoras number and give some numerical illustrations.

Bounds on the Pythagoras number of the sum of square magnitudes of complex polynomials

This paper presents lower and upper bounds on the Pythagoras number of sum of square magnitudes of complex polynomials using well-known results on a system of quadratic polynomial equations. Applying this method, a new proof for the upper bound of the Pythagoras number of real polynomials is also presented.

The Polynomials of a Graph

In this paper, we are presented a formula for the polynomial of a graph. Our main result is the following formula: [Sum (d{_u}(k))]=[Sum (a{_kj}{S{_G}^j}(1))], where, u is an element of V(G) and 1<=j<=k.

Nonnegative Polynomials and Sums of Squares

A real polynomial in n variables is called nonnegative if it is greater than or equal to 0 at all points in R. It is a central question in real algebraic geometry whether a nonnegative polynomial can be written in a way that makes its nonnegativity apparent, i.e. as a sum of squares of polynomials (or more general objects). Algorithms to obtain such representations, when they are known, have ma...

An Incremental DC Algorithm for the Minimum Sum-of-Squares Clustering

Here, an algorithm is presented for solving the minimum sum-of-squares clustering problems using their difference of convex representations. The proposed algorithm is based on an incremental approach and applies the well known DC algorithm at each iteration. The proposed algorithm is tested and compared with other clustering algorithms using large real world data sets.
