Let $S$ be solutions of a system of quadratic polynomials on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Suppose $q$ is another quadratic polynomial such that $q|_S\geqslant 0$. >Is it possible to find a polynomial $\tilde q$ such that $\tilde q\geqslant0$, $\deg \tilde q\leqslant 2$, and $\tilde q\ |_S=q|_S$? **Comments** - If the system contains only one polynomial, then the answer is yes.
