Characterizations and representations of the Drazin inverse involving idempotents

From MaRDI portal
Publication:840650





The authors present some results on the Drazin invertibility of products and differences of idempotent matrices. Specifically, the authors obtain equivalent conditions for the Drazin invertibility of \(P+Q\), \(P-Q\), \(PQ\) and \(PQ \pm QP\), in the case when \(P\) and \(Q\) are idempotent matrices given by \[ P=I \oplus 0 \;\;\text{and} \;\;Q= \left( \begin{matrix} Q_1 & Q_2 \\ Q_3 & Q_4 \end{matrix} \right). \] In addition, the authors provide representations for the Drazin inverse of \(P-Q\) and \(PQ-QP\) under the assumption that \(P\) and \(Q\) are given by the above expression. They also present some formulae for the Drazin inverse of sums, differences and products of idempotent matrices. Finally, the authors derive formulae for the Drazin inverse of the idempotent matrices under some special conditions.
