Characterizations and representations of the group inverse involving idempotents (Q624370): Difference between revisions

The paper deals with the theory of group inverse. Let \({\mathcal H}\) be a complex Hilbert space. Denote by \({\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})\) the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on \({\mathcal H}\). For \(T\in{\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})\), the group inverse of \(T\) is the unique (if exists) element \(T^\#\in{\mathcal B}({\mathcal T})\) such that \[ TT^\#= T^\# T,\quad T^\# TT^\#= T^\#,\quad T= TT^\# T. \] An operator \(P\in{\mathcal B}({\mathcal H})\) is said to be idempotent if \(P^2= P\). The author studies group invertibility of some expressions depending on two idempotents. Some results on the group invertibility of products and differences of idempotents are presented. In addition, some formulae for the group inverse of sums, differences and products of idempotents are established by using some given idempotents.
