| contents | Hermitian linear matrix pencils are ubiquitous in control theory, operator systems, semidefinite optimization, and real algebraic geometry. This survey reviews the fundamental features of the matricial solution set of a linear matrix inequality, the free spectrahedron, from the perspective of free real algebraic geometry. Namely, among matricial solution sets of noncommutative polynomial inequalities, free spectrahedra are precisely the convex ones. Furthermore, a procedure for detecting free spectrahedra and producing their representing linear matrix pencils is discussed. Finally, free spectrahedra admit a perfect Positivstellensatz, leading to a semidefinite programming formulation of eigenvalue optimization over convex matricial sets constrained by noncommutative polynomial inequalities. |
