Disproves the Projected Lax conjecture: some hyperbolicity cones are not spectrahedral shadows. The examples admit no exact finite affine semidefinite lift, regardless of the number of auxiliary variables or the real coefficients used. This also disproves the generalized Lax conjecture that every hyperbolicity cone is spectrahedral.

The authors are OpenAI. This companion does not verify the proof. The claim is not a theorem of the Enter series and not a premise of any registered sheet. It does not close O.1. O.1 stays NOT_CLOSED. It is not a de Sitter state and not the QdS external-leg scheme. No quantum coefficient is admitted. No compilation is asserted.
