Abstract:
In this article we give some formulas for the maximal and minimal ranks of the submatrices in a least squares solution X to AXB = C. From these formulas, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the submatrices to be zero and other special forms, respectively. Finally, some Hermitian properties for least squares solution to matrix equation AXB = C are derived.
