Abstract: | This paper concerns polynomials in g noncommutative variables x=(x1,…,xg), inverses of such polynomials, and more generally noncommutative “rational expressions” with real coefficients which are formally symmetric and “analytic near 0.” The focus is on rational expressions r=r(x) which are “matrix convex” near 0; i.e., those rational expressions r for which there is an ?>0 such that if X=(X1,…,Xg) is a g-tuple of n×n symmetric matrices satisfying |
