Title
Bilinear optimality constraints for the cone of positive polynomials
Abstract
For a proper cone $${{\mathcal K}\subset\mathbb{R}^n}$$ and its dual cone $${{\mathcal K}^*}$$ the complementary slackness condition $${\langle{\rm {\bf x}},{\rm {\bf s}}\rangle=0}$$ defines an n-dimensional manifold $${C({\mathcal K})}$$ in the space $${{\mathbb R}^{2n}}$$. When $${{\mathcal K}}$$ is a symmetric cone, points in $${C({\mathcal K})}$$ must satisfy at least n linearly independent bilinear identities. This fact proves to be useful when optimizing over such cones, therefore it is natural to look for similar bilinear relations for non-symmetric cones. In this paper we define the bilinearity rank of a cone, which is the number of linearly independent bilinear identities valid for points in $${C({\mathcal K})}$$. We examine several well-known cones, in particular the cone of positive polynomials $${{\mathcal P}_{2n+1}}$$ and its dual, and show that there are exactly four linearly independent bilinear identities which hold for all $${({\rm {\bf x}},{\rm {\bf s}})\in C({\mathcal P}_{2n+1})}$$, regardless of the dimension of the cones. For nonnegative polynomials over an interval or half-line there are only two linearly independent bilinear identities. These results are extended to trigonometric and exponential polynomials. We prove similar results for Müntz polynomials.
