Least squares solution of the linear operator equation (Q306316)

The paper deals with the least squares solution of the linear operator equation \((*)\) \({\mathcal{F}}(X)=C\), where \({\mathcal{F}}: \mathbb C^{m \times n} \longrightarrow \mathbb C^{p \times q}\) is surjective and \(C \in \mathbb C^{p \times q}\) is given. In this respect, the author extends the classical conjugate gradient least squares algorithm to the new context and proves its convergence to the minimal norm solution of the Problem \((*)\).
