The determinant as a differential operator

According to Gårding, the determinant is a hyperbolic polynomial over the space $\mathbf{Sym}_n$ of real symmetric $n\times n$ matrices. More precisely, it is hyperbolic in the direction of the identi …

Convex solutions of linear hyperbolic PDEs in a planar domain

Consider a linear homogeneous 2nd-order PDE in a convex planar domain $\Omega$ : $$a(x,y)\frac{\partial^2u}{\partial x^2}+2b(x,y)\frac{\partial^2u}{\partial x\partial y}+c(x,y)\frac{\partial^2u}{\part …

A curious determinant of quadratic forms

In a work about the Wave Equation, I encountered the following symmetric matrix of size $1+n$, whose entries are quadratic forms. The arguments are a scalar $a$ and a vector $X\in k^n$. $$S(a,X)=\beg …
