A Remark on Sums of Squares of Complex Vector Fields
Let {Zj} be a finite collection of vector fields, with smooth complex-valued coefficients, defined in an open subset U of Euclidean space. Let Z∗ j be the formal adjoint of Zj , with respect to the Hilbert space structure L2 associated to some measure with a smooth nonvanishing density. Consider the operator L = ∑ j Z ∗ jZj, which we shall refer to as a sum of squares. L is said to be hypoellip...
متن کاملQuadratic Convexity and Sums of Squares
Quadratic Convexity and Sums of Squares Martin Ames Harrison The length of a sum of squares σ in a ring R is the smallest natural k such that σ can be realized as a sum of k squares in R. For a set S ⊆ R, the pythagoras number of S, denoted by P(S), is the maximum value of length over all σ ∈ S. This dissertation is motivated by the following simple question: if R = R[x1, . . . , xn] and S = R[...
متن کاملOn Sums of Three Squares
(1) r3(n) = 4πn S3(n), where the singular series S3(n) is given by (16) with Q = ∞. While in principle this exact formula can be used to answer almost any question concerning r3(n), the ensuing calculations can be tricky because of the slow convergence of the singular series S3(n). Thus, one often sidesteps (1) and attacks problems involving r3(n) directly. For example, concerning the mean valu...
متن کاملSums of Squares over Totally Real Fields Are Rational Sums of Squares
Let K be a totally real number field with Galois closure L. We prove that if f ∈ Q[x1, . . . , xn] is a sum of m squares in K[x1, . . . , xn], then f is a sum of 4m · 2[L:Q]+1 ([L : Q] + 1 2 ) squares in Q[x1, . . . , xn]. Moreover, our argument is constructive and generalizes to the case of commutative K-algebras. This result gives a partial resolution to a question of Sturmfels on the algebra...
متن کاملSums of Three Squares in Function Fields of Conics and Cassels–catalan Curves
We show that a function field in one variable of genus zero has pythagoras number two if and only if either the base field is hereditarily pythagorean and, in case the function field is nonreal, uniquely ordered, or −1 is a square in the base field. We generalize one implication to function fields of Cassels-Catalan curves.
