Bounds for norms of the matrix inverse and the smallest singular value (Q952048)

In the first part of the paper, some lower bounds for \(\| A^{-1}\| \) for \(M\)- and \(H\)-matrices are given. Here \(\| \cdot\| \) denotes an arbitrary matrix norm. However the main results of the papers are related to upper bounds for \(\| A^{-1}\| _{1}\) and \(\| A^{-1}\| _{\infty}\), where \(A\) is a strictly diagonally dominant matrix. As a consequence of these results some bounds for the smallest singular value are obtained.
