Structures preserved by generalized inversion and Schur complementation (Q1044576): Difference between revisions

The authors investigate the inheritance of certain structures under generalized matrix inversion. These consist of rank and displacement structures. The study is done in such a way that the derivation of the preservation of rank structure can be carried over to that of the displacement structure. Particular attention is paid to the Moore-Penrose generalized inverse. It is shown that, for the cases of most interest, the ranks of the structure satisfied by the Moore-Penrose inverse can be at most double compared with the original ranks. Also the preservation of the rank structure by generalized Schur complements is considered.
