An elementary and constructive solution to Hilbert's 17th Problem for matrices
Christopher J. Hillar, Jiawang Nie
We give a short and elementary proof of a theorem of Procesi, Schacher and (independently) Gondard, Ribenboim that generalizes a famous result of Artin. Let be an …
Minimal Generators for Symmetric Ideals
Christopher J. Hillar, Troels Windfeldt
Let be a field, and let be the polynomial ring in an infinite collection of indeterminates over . Let be the symmetric group of . The g…
Algebraic Characterization of Uniquely Vertex Colorable Graphs
Christopher J. Hillar, Troels Windfeldt
The study of graph vertex colorability from an algebraic perspective has introduced novel techniques and algorithms into the field. For instance, it is known that -colorability…
Automorphisms of finite Abelian groups
Christopher J. Hillar, Darren Rhea
We give an accessible and modern description of the automorphisms of a finite abelian group . Included is an explicit formula for the cardinality of .
