Condition number of the \(W\)-weighted Drazin inverse (Q2518724)

Let \(A\) be an \(m \times n\) matrix. \textit{J. Chen} and \textit{Z. Xu} [J. Appl. Math. Comput. 27, No. 1--2, 421--435 (2008; Zbl 1153.15301)] characterized the condition number of the Drazin inverse and singular linear systems for restrained matrices, by using the Schur decomposition and the spectral norm instead of the \(P\)-norm, where \(P\) is a transformation matrix of the Jordan canonical form of \(A\). The authors of the present paper obtain the explicit condition number formulas for the \(W\)-weighted Drazin inverse of a rectangular matrix using the Schur decomposition and the spectral norm. They characterize the spectral norm and the Frobenius norm of the relative condition number of the \(W\)-weighted Drazin inverse, and the level-\(2\) condition number of the \(W\)-weighted Drazin inverse.
