Minimal determinantal representations of bivariate polynomials

Abstract: For a square-free bivariate polynomial p of degree n we introduce a simple and fast numerical algorithm for the construction of n×n matrices A, B, and C such that det(A+x B+ y C) = p (x, y). This is the minimal size needed to represent a bivariate polynomial of degree n. Combined with a square-free factorization one can now compute n × n matrices for any bivariate polynomial of degree n. The existence of such symmetric matrices was established by Dixon in 1902, but, up to now, no simple numerical construction … Show more

“…We know from [3] that a representation of the minimum size always exists, but a different construction needs to be applied. For instance, the construction from [11] gives an n × n representation for a square-free bivariate polynomial of degree n, i.e., a polynomial that is not a multiple of a square of a non-constant polynomial. 9.…”

“…In this example we generated random bivariate polynomials whose coefficients are random real numbers uniformly distributed on [0, 1] or random complex numbers, such that real and imaginary parts are both uniformly distributed on [0, 1]. We compared Lin345 to Lin2 from [13], which returns matrices of size 3, 5 and 8 for a generic bivariate polynomial or degree 3, 4, and 5, respectively, and to MinRep from [11], which returns matrices of the same size as the degree of a square-free polynomial. These are the only two methods that we compared Lin345 to, since other methods for solving systems of bivariate polynomials (for example [11] and [13]) return representations of bigger sizes and moreover turn out to be slower.…”
