If ρ is separable, it can be written as = In this case, the effect of the partial transposition is trivial: = () = As the transposition map preserves eigenvalues, the spectrum of () is the same as the spectrum of , and in particular () must still be positive semidefinite.

A linear programming problem is one in which we wish to maximize or minimize a linear objective function of real variables over a polytope.In semidefinite programming, we instead use real-valued vectors and are allowed to take the dot product of vectors; nonnegativity constraints on real variables in LP (linear programming) are replaced by semidefiniteness constraints on matrix variables in ...
One can define positive-definite functions on any locally compact abelian topological group; Bochner's theorem extends to this context. Positive-definite functions on groups occur naturally in the representation theory of groups on Hilbert spaces (i.e. the theory of unitary representations).
Semidefinite programming subsumes SOCPs as the SOCP constraints can be written as linear matrix inequalities (LMI) and can be reformulated as an instance of semidefinite program. [4] The converse, however, is not valid: there are positive semidefinite cones that do not admit any second-order cone representation. [3]
In mathematics (specifically linear algebra, operator theory, and functional analysis) as well as physics, a linear operator acting on an inner product space is called positive-semidefinite (or non-negative) if, for every (), , and , , where is the domain of .
Some authors use the name square root or the notation A 1/2 only for the specific case when A is positive semidefinite, to denote the unique matrix B that is positive semidefinite and such that BB = B T B = A (for real-valued matrices, where B T is the transpose of B).
Let denote the space of Hermitian matrices, + denote the set consisting of positive semi-definite Hermitian matrices and + + denote the set of positive definite Hermitian matrices. For operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space we require that they be trace class and self-adjoint , in which case similar definitions apply, but we discuss ...
