Formalize PPlus/nonnegative-root real-stability bridge #87

Description

@PerAlexandersson

Theorem

Lean target: introduce the multivariate real-stability bridge used in Gribinski--Marcus:

theorem hasOnlyNonnegRoots_iff_realStable_XY
    {d : ℕ} {p : ℝ[X]}
    (hpdeg : p.natDegree = d) (hlead : 0 < p.leadingCoeff) :
    HasOnlyNonnegRoots p ↔ RealStable (xyLift p)

Here xyLift p should be the bivariate polynomial corresponding to p(x * y) in whatever multivariate polynomial API we choose. The statement may be better phrased through a local PPlus d p predicate if that makes the exact-degree convention cleaner.

Reference

Gribinski--Marcus, A rectangular additive convolution for polynomials, Lemma 2.5. Mao--Wang use this theorem indirectly through Gribinski--Marcus Lemma 2.3.

Dependencies

  • Choose or introduce a multivariate polynomial/real-stability API.
  • Reuse HasOnlyNonnegRoots from RealRooted/NarayanaTransformation.lean or move it to a more general file if needed.
  • Basic facts about upper-half-plane substitution and real roots.

Notes

This is the entry point for replacing the current rectangularAdditiveConvolutionPreservesNonnegRoots_degreeAtLeastThree sorry with the actual Gribinski--Marcus proof route.
