The spectral containment conjecture for homogeneous multiaffine stable polynomials

A homogeneous multiaffine stable polynomial pR[x1,,xn]p\in\mathbb{R}[x_1,\ldots,x_n] has the spectral containment property if, for every symmetric matrix AH(P)A\in H(P), some eigenvalue vector of AA belongs to H(p)H(p). Spectral containment conjecture. Every homogeneous multiaffine stable polynomial has the spectral containment property. The paper establishes several special cases and reports computational evidence, but the general assertion remains open.
