Gram matrix representation of a trigonometric polynomial

ID: gram-matrix-representation-of-a-trigonometric-polynomial

Under the displayed diagonal-sum convention, set on the unit circle. A Hermitian matrix then gives
Consequently proves nonnegativity. Conversely the Fejér–Riesz theorem produces the rank-one spectral-factor Gram matrix. This gives a semidefinite programming representation of nonnegative trigonometric polynomials. The reversed convention instead uses the unconjugated monomial vector.
