Abstract: | Let a complex pxn matrix A be partitioned as A′=(A′1,A′2,…,A′k). Denote by ?(A), A′, and A? respectively the rank of A, the transpose of A, and an inner inverse (or a g-inverse) of A. Let A(14) be an inner inverse of A such that A(14)A is a Hermitian matrix. Let B=(A(14)1,A(14)2,…,Ak(14)) and .Then the product of nonzero eigenvalues of BA (or AB) cannot exceed one, and the product of nonzero eigenvalues of BA is equal to one if and only if either B=A(14) or for all i ≠ j,i, j=1,2,…,k . The results of Lavoie (1980) and Styan (1981) are obtained as particular cases. A result is obtained for k=2 when the condition is no longer true. |
