Investigations on inequalities for singular values of the product of two quaternion matrices are presented and thereafter, making use of the relation between singular values and eigenvalues, the authors give an estimation for each eigenvalue of the product of two self-conjugate matrices \(A\) and \(B\) for \(A\geq 0\), \(B\geq 0\) or \(B>0\). To be specific, let \(Q\) be the quaternion field, \(A\in Q^{m\times n}\) and \(GL_ n(Q)\), \(SC_ n(Q)\), \(GU_ n(Q)\) be the set of nonsingular, self-conjugate and generalized unitary matrices, respectively, and \(\sigma_ i(A)\), \(\lambda_ i(A)\) be the singular values and eigenvalues, respectively, then: 1) If \(A\in Q^{m\times n}\), \(B\in Q^{n\times s}\), then \(\sigma_ k(AB)\leq \min_{t=1,2,\dots,n-k+1} \{\sigma_ t(A)\sigma_{k- t+1}(B)\}\), \(k=1,2,\dots\), \(min(m,n,s)\); 2) If \(A,B\in GL_ n(Q)\), then \(\sigma_ k(AB)\geq\max_{t=1,2,\dots,n-k+1} \{\sigma_{k+t-1}(A) \sigma_{n- t+1}(B)\}\), \(k=1,2,\dots,n\); 3) If \(A,B\in SC_ n(Q)\), \(A\geq 0\), \(B\geq 0\), \(\text{rank }AB=m\), \(\text{rank }A=r\), \(\text{rank }B=s\), then \(\lambda_ k(AB)\leq \displaystyle{ \min_{{t=1,2,\dots,k} \atop {i=1,2,\dots,k-t+1}}} \{(\lambda_ t(A) \lambda_{k-t-i+2}(A))^{1/2} \lambda_ i(B),(\lambda_ t(B) \lambda_{k-t-i+2}(B))^{1/2} \lambda_ i(A)\}\), \(k=1,2,\dots,n\), and \(\lambda_ k(AB)\geq\displaystyle{\max_{{t=1,2,\dots,m-k+1} \atop {l=1,2,\dots,t}}} \{(\lambda_{k+t-1+r-m}(A)\lambda_{r- l+1}(A))^{1/2} \lambda_{m-t+l+n-r}(B)\), \((\lambda_{k+t-1+n-r}(B) \lambda_{m-l+1+n-r}(B))^{1/2} \lambda_{r-t+l}(A)\), \((\lambda_{k+t-1+s-m}(B)\lambda_{s- t+1}(B))^{1/2} \lambda_{m-t+l+n-s}(A)\), \((\lambda_{k+1-1+n-s}(A) \lambda_{m-l+1+n-s}(A))^{1/2} \lambda_{s-t+l}(B)\}\), \(k=1,2,\dots,m\). A few misprints are obvious.
