Abstract

We study the quadratic convexification of the compact nonconvex set ${G} := \left[1/2,2\right]^2 \cap \{(x_1,x_2)\in\mathbb R^2\mid x_1x_2\leq1\}, $ which is a square truncated by a hyperbolic arc. Although the ordinary convex hull of ${G}$ is a triangle, its lifted convex hull in the complete quadratic space retains the nontrivial geometry of the curved boundary. We characterize all extreme rays of the cone of quadratic polynomials nonnegative on $G$, including parameterized families of bounded tangent and bitangent rays. Using this classification and conic duality, we derive an exact finite semidefinite representation of the lifted convex hull of ${G}$. The analysis follows the general framework of our earlier work on an unbounded product-constrained region, but the bounded geometry creates new boundary-contact patterns and leads to a different finite organization of the nonnegative-quadratic cone.

Nonnegative Quadratics over a Quadrant with a Bilinear Constraint

We study quadratic polynomials that are nonnegative on the non-compact set \[ F:=\{(x_1,x_2)\in\mathbb R^2:\ x_1\ge 0,\ x_2\ge 0,\ x_1x_2\le 1\}. \] All extreme rays of the cone of nonnegative quadratic polynomials are characterized on this set. The characterization allows us to study parameterized valid inequalities f...

The unit ball of quadratic forms on an octagonal sector

Let \[\mathfrak O=\{(x,y)\in[0,1]^2:x+y\le \sqrt2\} \] be the first-quadrant sector of a regular octagon. For quadratic forms \(P(x,y)=ax^2+bxy+cy^2\), we study the supremum norm over \(\mathfrak O\). We obtain a complete five-region formula for the norm, according to whether the norming contact occurs at an endpoint o...

Gromov hyperbolicity, finite type, and subellipticity on $\mathbb{C}$-convex domains

In this article, we study three properties of a bounded $\mathbb{C}$-convex domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^n$, $n \geq 2$, with smooth boundary, namely Gromov hyperbolicity of its Kobayashi distance, finiteness of the D'Angelo type of $\partial \Omega$, and the existence of a subelliptic estimate for the $\bar{\part...

A note on bounded ratios

We prove that the set of bounded ratios $\BR(X)$ on a semialgebraic set $X\subset\R^n_{>0}$ is the convex cone of linear forms that are nonnegative on the tropicalization $\trop(X)$. In particular, it is a rational polyhedral convex cone. For $X$ the set of Lorentzian polynomials with fixed M-convex support, it is the...

The Asymptotic Plateau Problem for $p$-Convex Hypersurfaces in Hyperbolic Space

We solve the asymptotic Plateau problem in hyperbolic space for the curvature given by the normalized geometric mean of the $p$-fold sums of the principal curvatures. For every $n\ge3$, $2\le p\le n-1$, and $\sigma\in(0,1)$, each bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with smooth mean-convex boundary admits a uniqu...

Curvature integral on convex hypersurfaces

Let $M^n$, $n\ge3$, be the smooth, connected, complete, noncompact boundary of a closed convex set with nonempty interior in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. We prove that its normalized scalar-curvature integral at infinity is at most $4\pi\omega_{n-2}(1-\operatorname{AVR}(M))$, except when, up to an ambient rigid motion, $M$ is t...
