Extensions of S-Lemma for Noncommutative Polynomials

We consider the problem of extending the classical S-lemma from commutative case to noncommutative cases. We show that a symmetric quadratic homogeneous matrix-valued polynomial is positive semidefinite if and only if its coefficient matrix is positive semidefinite. Then we extend the S-lemma to three kinds of noncommutative polynomials: noncommutative polynomials whose coefficients are real numbers, matrix-valued noncommutative polynomials and hereditary polynomials.
