Generalized inverses: theory and computations (Q1746076)

The notion of generalized inverse was first introduced by I. Fredholm in 1903. After the work of R. Penrose and E. H. Moore on generalized inverses of matrices, both the theory and the applications of generalized inverses have been investigated and developed by many mathematicians. This second edition of the book has two new chapters on generalized inverses of some special matrices (Chapter 6 is about the generalized inverses of structured matrices and Chapter 10 is devoted to generalized inverses of polynomial matrices) and an updated bibliography. The book presents a theoretical study of the generalization of Cramer's rule and determinant representations, reverse order laws of matrix products, parallel computations, perturbation analysis, weighted Moore-Penrose inverses, factorization methods, singular value decompositions, embedding methods, finite methods for generalized inverses. Each chapter ends with remarks and a list of related references. The book can be useful for graduate students having a good background in linear algebra and researchers interested in inversion problems.
