An Iterative Algorithm for the Generalized Reflexive Solutions of the Generalized Coupled Sylvester Matrix Equations

[摘要] An iterative algorithm is constructed to solve the generalized coupled Sylvester matrix equations(AXB-CYD,EXF-GYH)=(M,N), which includes Sylvester and Lyapunov matrix equations as special cases, over generalized reflexive matricesXandY. When the matrix equations are consistent, for any initial generalized reflexive matrix pair[X1,Y1], the generalized reflexive solutions can be obtained by the iterative algorithm within finite iterative steps in the absence of round-off errors, and the least Frobenius norm generalized reflexive solutions can be obtained by choosing a special kind of initial matrix pair. The unique optimal approximation generalized reflexive solution pair[X̂,Ŷ]to a given matrix pair[X0,Y0]in Frobenius norm can be derived by finding the least-norm generalized reflexive solution pair[X̃*,Ỹ*]of a new corresponding generalized coupled Sylvester matrix equation pair(AX̃B-CỸD,EX̃F-GỸH)=(M̃,Ñ), whereM̃=M-AX0B+CY0D,Ñ=N-EX0F+GY0H. Several numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the presented iterative algorithm.
