Abstrakt: Motivated by recent work on optimal approximation by polynomials in the unit disk, we consider the following noncommutative approximation problem: for a polynomial f in d freely noncommuting arguments, find a free polynomial p_n, of degree at most n, to minimize c_n ≔\|p_nf-1\|^2. (Here the norm is the \ell ^2 norm on coefficients.) We show that c_n\to 0 if and only if f is nonsingular in a certain nc domain (the row ball), and prove quantitative bounds. As an application, we obtain a new proof of the characterization of polynomials cyclic for the d-shift. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
