The W-weighted m-weak group MP inverse and its applications

Jiale Gao, Kezheng Zuo, Qing-Wen Wang

Abstract

We extend the concept of the m-weak group MP inverse of a square matrix to a rectangular matrix, called the W-weighted m-weak group MP inverse, which also unifies the W-weighted weak core inverse and W-weighted DMP inverse. Some properties, characterizations and representations of this new generalized inverse are shown. Additionally, applications of the W-weighted weak group MP inverse are given in solving a constrained optimization problem and a class of consistent matrix equations.

FerreyraWeCoerEPinref Let $A\in\mathbb{C}^{q\times n}$, $W(\neq 0)\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times q}$ and $k=\max\{{\rm Ind}(AW),{\rm Ind}(WA)\}$. Then, where $U\in\mathbb{C}^{q\times q}$ and $V\in\mathbb{C}^{n\times n}$ are unitary matrices, $A_1\in\mathbb{C}^{t\times t }$ and $W_1\in\mathbb{C}^{t\times t }$ are nonsingular matrices, $A_2\in\mathbb{C}^{t\times (n-t)}$, $W_2\in\mathbb{C}^{t\times (q-t)}$,
