Given a square matrix A in n x n symbolic variables a_{i,j}, I want a parametric solutions for the a_{i,j} constrained to a system of equations and inequalities.
For instance, given
syms a, b, c, d, x
A = [[a, b]; [c, d]]
e(x) = charpoly(A, x)
I would like to find parametric solutions for all a, b, c, d that satisfy, for example
e(1)==0 and a >= 0, b >= 0, c >= 0, d >= 0.
Maple has functionality like this ("Solve semi-algebraic", or something) and I would like to be able to do this with Matlab.
I attempted to use solve() (see attached screenshot), but, even in this simpler case I consider there, I get the warning and the empty solution, so I'm guessing that I'm not understanding the solve() function correctly.
Thank you.
