Positivstellens\"atze for Quantum Multigraphs

Abstract

Studying inequalities between subgraph- or homomorphism-densities is an important topic in graph theory. Sums of squares techniques have proven useful in dealing with such questions. Using an approach from real algebraic geometry, we strengthen a Positivstellensatz for simple quantum graphs by Lov\'asz and Szegedy, and we prove several new Positivstellens\"atze for nonnegativity of quantum multigraphs. We provide new examples and counterexamples.
