The class of m-EP and m-normal matrices

The well-known classes of EP matrices and normal matrices are defined by the matrices that commute with their Moore–Penrose inverse and with their conjugate transpose, respectively. This paper investigates the class of m-EP matrices and m-normal matrices that provide a generalization of EP matrices and normal matrices, respectively, and analyses both of them for their properties and characterizations.     

On the Drazin inverse of block matrices and generalized Schur complement

In this paper, we give an additive result for the Drazin inverse with its applications, we obtain representations for the Drazin inverse of a 2 × 2 complex block matrix having generalized Schur complement S=D-CA^DB equal to zero or nonsingular. Several situations are analyzed and recent results are generalized [R.E. Hartwig, X. Li, Y. Wei, Representations for the Drazin inverse of a 2×2 block matrix, SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl. 27 (3) (2006) 757-771].     

Characterizations of m-EP elements in rings

Let R be a ring with involution. In this paper, we extend the notions of m-EP matrices and m-EP operators to an arbitrary ring case. A number of new characterizations of m-EP elements in rings are presented. In particular, the existence criteria for 1-EP (i.e. EP) elements are obtained by means of the group inverse, Moore–Penrose inverse, and core inverse. Some properties of 2-EP are also given.     

On sparse reflexive generalized inverse

We study sparse generalized inverses $H$ of a rank-$r$ real matrix $A$. We give a construction for reflexive generalized inverses having at most $r^2$ nonzeros. For $r=1$ and for $r=2$ with $A$ nonnegative, we demonstrate how to minimize the (vector) 1-norm over reflexive generalized inverses. For general $r$, we efficiently find reflexive generalized inverses with 1-norm within approximately a factor of $r^2$ of the minimum 1-norm generalized inverse.     

On matrices over an arbitrary semiring and their generalized inverses

In this paper, we consider matrices with entries from a semiring S. We first discuss some generalized inverses of rectangular and square matrices. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the Moore–Penrose inverse of a regular matrix. For an m×n$m\times n$ matrix A  , an n×m$n\times m$ matrix P and a square matrix Q of order m, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the group inverse of QAP   with the additional property that P(QAP)^#Q$P{(QAP)}^{\mathrm{\#}}Q$ is a {1,2}$\{1,2\}$ inverse of A  . The matrix product used here is the usual matrix multiplication. The result provides a method for generating elements in the set of {1,2}$\{1,2\}$ inverses of an m×n$m\times n$ matrix A starting from an initial {1} inverse of A  . We also establish a criterion for the existence of the group inverse of a regular square matrix. We then consider a semiring structure (_Mm×n(S),+,°)$({\mathbf{M}}_{m\times n}(\mathbf{S}),+,°)$ made up of m×n$m\times n$ matrices with the addition defined entry-wise and the multiplication defined as in the case of the Hadamard product of complex matrices. In the semiring (_Mm×n(S),+,°)$({\mathbf{M}}_{m\times n}(\mathbf{S}),+,°)$, we present criteria for the existence of the Drazin inverse and the Moore–Penrose inverse of an m×n$m\times n$ matrix. When S is commutative, we show that the Hadamard product preserves the Hermitian property, and provide a Schur-type product theorem for the product A°(CC^?)$A°(C{C}^{?})$ of a positive semidefinite n×n$n\times n$ matrix A   and an n×n$n\times n$ matrix C.     

Core inverse of matrices

This article introduces the notion of the Core inverse as an alternative to the group inverse. Several of its properties are derived with a perspective towards possible applications. Furthermore, a matrix partial ordering based on the Core inverse is introduced and extensively investigated.     

A dominance notion for singular matrices with applications to nonnegative generalized inverses

A dominance rule for singular matrices using proper splittings is proposed. This extends the corresponding notion, known for nonsingular matrices. An application to the nonnegativity of the Moore–Penrose inverse is presented.     

On linear combinations of generalized involutive matrices

Let X ^? denotes the Moore--Penrose pseudoinverse of a matrix X. We study a number of situations when (aA?+?bB)^??=?aA?+?bB provided a,?b?∈?????{0} and A, B are n?×?n complex matrices such that A ^??=?A and B ^??=?B.     

On Drazin inverse of operator matrices

In this short paper, we offer (another) formula for the Drazin inverse of an operator matrix for which certain products of the entries vanish. We also give formula for the Drazin inverse of the sum of two operators under special conditions.     

Approximating the inverse and the Moore‐Penrose inverse of complex matrices

A parametric family of fourth‐order schemes for computing the inverse and the Moore‐Penrose inverse of a complex matrix is designed. A particular value of the parameter allows us to obtain a fifth‐order method. Convergence analysis of the different methods is studied. Every iteration of the proposed schemes involves four matrix multiplications. A numerical comparison with other known methods, in terms of the average number of matrix multiplications and the mean of CPU time, is presented.     

Some results on the Drazin inverse of anti-triangular matrices

Abstract

The representations for the Drazin inverse of anti-triangular matrices are obtained under some conditions. Applying these representations, we give a necessary condition for a class of block matrices to have signed Drazin inverse.
