Solution: 2024-17 Positive polynomials

Suppose that \( p(x) \) is a degree \( n \) polynomial with complex coefficients such that \( p(x) \geq 0 \) for any real number \( x \). Prove that
\[
p(x) + p'(x) + \dots + p^{(n)}(x) \geq 0
\]
for any real number \( x \).

Solution: 2024-16 Stay positive!

Let \(A= [a_{ij}]_{1\leq i,j\leq 5}\) be a \(5\times 5\) positive definite (real) matrix. Show that the matrix \([a_{ij}/(i+j)]\) is also positive definite.
