An iterative algorithm for solving a class of generalized coupled Sylvester-transpose matrix equations over bisymmetric or skew-anti-symmetric matrices

This paper presents an iterative algorithm to solve a class of generalized coupled Sylvester-transpose matrix equations over bisymmetric or skew-anti-symmetric matrices. When the matrix equations are consistent, the bisymmetric or skew-anti-symmetric solutions can be obtained within finite iteration steps in the absence of round-off errors for any initial bisymmetric or skew-anti-symmetric matrices by the proposed iterative algorithm. In addition, we can obtain the least norm solution by choosing the special initial matrices. Finally, numerical examples are given to demonstrate the iterative algorithm is quite efficient. The merit of our method is that it is easy to implement.     

Finite iterative method for solving coupled Sylvester-transpose matrix equations

This paper is concerned with solutions to the so-called coupled Sylvester-transpose matrix equations, which include the generalized Sylvester matrix equation and Lyapunov matrix equation as special cases. By extending the idea of conjugate gradient method, an iterative algorithm is constructed to solve this kind of coupled matrix equations. When the considered matrix equations are consistent, for any initial matrix group, a solution group can be obtained within finite iteration steps in the absence of roundoff errors. The least Frobenius norm solution group of the coupled Sylvester-transpose matrix equations can be derived when a suitable initial matrix group is chosen. By applying the proposed algorithm, the optimal approximation solution group to a given matrix group can be obtained by finding the least Frobenius norm solution group of new general coupled matrix equations. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate that the algorithm is effective.     

Finite iterative solutions to coupled Sylvester-conjugate matrix equations

This paper is concerned with solutions to the so-called coupled Sylveter-conjugate matrix equations, which include the generalized Sylvester matrix equation and coupled Lyapunov matrix equation as special cases. An iterative algorithm is constructed to solve this kind of matrix equations. By using the proposed algorithm, the existence of a solution to a coupled Sylvester-conjugate matrix equation can be determined automatically. When the considered matrix equation is consistent, it is proven by using a real inner product in complex matrix spaces as a tool that a solution can be obtained within finite iteration steps for any initial values in the absence of round-off errors. Another feature of the proposed algorithm is that it can be implemented by using original coefficient matrices, and does not require to transform the coefficient matrices into any canonical forms. The algorithm is also generalized to solve a more general case. Two numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

LSQR iterative common symmetric solutions to matrix equations AXB = E and CXD = F

A new matrix based iterative method is presented to compute common symmetric solution or common symmetric least-squares solution of the pair of matrix equations AXB = E and CXD = F. By this iterative method, for any initial matrix X₀, a solution X^∗ can be obtained within finite iteration steps if exact arithmetic was used, and the solution X^∗ with the minimum Frobenius norm can be obtained by choosing a special kind of initial matrix. In addition, the unique nearest common symmetric solution or common symmetric least-squares solution to given matrix in Frobenius norm can be obtained by first finding the minimum Frobenius norm common symmetric solution or common symmetric least-squares solution of the new pair of matrix equations. The given numerical examples show that the matrix based iterative method proposed in this paper has faster convergence than the iterative methods proposed in [1] and [2] to solve the same problems.

A note on the iterative solutions of general coupled matrix equation

Recently, Ding and Chen [F. Ding, T. Chen, On iterative solutions of general coupled matrix equations, SIAM J. Control Optim. 44 (2006) 2269-2284] developed a gradient-based iterative method for solving a class of coupled Sylvester matrix equations. The basic idea is to regard the unknown matrices to be solved as parameters of a system to be identified, so that the iterative solutions are obtained by applying hierarchical identification principle. In this note, by considering the coupled Sylvester matrix equation as a linear operator equation we give a natural way to derive this algorithm. We also propose some faster algorithms and present some numerical results.

In the present work, a new biconjugate residual algorithm (BCR) is proposed in order to compute the constraint solution of the coupled operator equations, in which the constraint solution include symmetric solution, reflective solution, centrosymmetric solution and anti-centrosymmetric solution as special cases. When the studied coupled operator equations are consistent, it is proved that constraint solution can be convergent to the exact solutions if giving any initial complex matrices or real matrices. In addition, when the studied coupled operator equations are not consistent, the least norm constraint solution above can also be computed by selecting any initial matrices. Finally, some numerical examples are provided for illustrating the effectiveness and superiority of new proposed method.

A shift-splitting hierarchical identification method for solving Lyapunov matrix equations

In the present paper, we propose a hierarchical identification method (SSHI) for solving Lyapunov matrix equations, which is based on the symmetry and skew-symmetry splitting of the coefficient matrix. We prove that the iterative algorithm consistently converges to the true solution for any initial values with some conditions, and illustrate that the rate of convergence of the iterative solution can be enhanced by choosing the convergence factors appropriately. Furthermore, we show that the method adopted can be easily extended to study iterative solutions of other matrix equations, such as Sylvester matrix equations. Finally, we test the algorithms and show their effectiveness using numerical examples.
