متن کاملAnalytical formulas for calculating the extremal ranks and inertias of A + BXB∗ when X is a fixed-rank Hermitian matrix
The rank of a matrix and the inertia of a square matrix are two of the most generic concepts in matrix theory for describing the dimension of the row/column vector space and the sign distribution of the eigenvalues of the matrix. Matrix rank and inertia optimization problems are a class of discontinuous optimization problems, in which decision variables are matrices running over certain matrix ...
متن کاملOptimization problems on the rank and inertia of the Hermitian matrix expression A−BX − (BX)∗ with applications
We give in this paper some closed-form formulas for the maximal and minimal values of the rank and inertia of the Hermitian matrix expression A − BX ± (BX)∗ with respect to a variable matrix X. As applications, we derive the extremal values of the ranks/inertias of the matrices X and X ± X∗, where X is a (Hermitian) solution to the matrix equation AXB = C, respectively, and give necessary and s...
متن کاملRank and inertia optimizations of two Hermitian quadratic matrix functions subject to restrictions with applications
In this paper, we first give the maximal and minimal values of the ranks and inertias of the quadratic matrix functions q1(X) = Q1 − XP1X and q2(X) = Q2 − XP2X subject to a consistent matrix equation AX = B, where Q1, Q2, P1 and P2 are Hermitian matrices. As applications, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the solution of AX = B to satisfy the quadratic equality XP1X ∗ = Q1 and X...
متن کاملThe Inertia of Hermitian Tridiagonal Block Matrices
Let H be a partitioned tridiagonal Hermitian matrix. We characterized the possible inertias of H by a system of linear inequalities involving the orders of the blocks, the inertia of the diagonal blocks and the ranks the lower and upper subdiagonal blocks. From the main result can be derived some propositions on inertia sets of some symmetric sign pattern matrices.
