A higher order iterative method for \(A^{(2)}_{T,S}\) (Q741388)

The unique matrix \(X\in \mathbb{C}^{n\,\times \,m}\) such that \(XAX=X,\) \ \( R(X)=T\) \ and \(N(X)=S\) is known as the outer inverse or \((2)\)-inverse denoted by \(A_{T,S}^{(2)}\) with the prescribed range \(T\) and null space \(S.\) Outer inverses include the traditional generalized inverse, the Moore-Penrose inverse, the weighted Moore-Penrose inverse, the Drazin inverse, the Bott-Duffin inverse etc. This paper presents a higher-order iterative method for computing the outer inverse \(A_{T,S}^{(2)}\) for a given matrix \(A\in \mathbb{C}^{m\,\times \,n}.\) Actually, direct methods usually need much computational cost or may not be able to work at all; so iterative methods are the most effective choice. Convergence analysis is studied and error bounds are established. Many numerical examples are reported and results are compared with some of the iterative methods already presented in literature. Remarkably, the reported results by the presented method improve previous results in terms of both computational speed and accuracy.
