Abstract

Mathematics - Functional Analysis
J. Geom. Anal. 31 (2021) 3137--3160 Motivated by classical notions of partial convexity, biconvexity, and bilinear matrix inequalities, we investigate the theory of free sets that are defined by (low degree) noncommutative matrix polynomials with constrained terms. Given a tuple of symmetric polynomials $\Gamma$, a free set is called $\Gamma$-convex if it closed under isometric conjugation by isometries intertwining $\Gamma$. We establish an Effros-Winkler Hahn-Banach separation theorem for $\Gamma$-convex sets; they are delineated by linear pencils in the coordinates of $\Gamma$ and the variables $x$.
