Extreme ranks of a partial banded block quaternion matrix expression subject to some matrix equations with applications.
(English)
[J] Algebra Colloq. 18, No. 2, 333-346 (2011). ISSN 1005-3867

Authors' abstract: We establish the formulas of the maximal and minimal ranks of a $3\times3$ partial banded block matrix $$\left[\matrix M_{11}&M_{12}&X\\ M_{21}&M_{22}&M_{23}\\ Y&M_{32}&M_{33}\endmatrix\right]$$ where $X$ and $Y$ are a pair of variant quaternion matrices subject to linear quaternion matrix equations $A_1X=C_1$, $XB_1=C_2$, $A_2Y=D_1$, $YB_2=D_2$. As applications, we present a necessary and sufficient condition for the solvability to the quadratic system $A_1X=C_1$, $XB_1=C_2$, $A_2Y=D_1$, $YB_2=D_2$, $XPY=J$ over the quaternion algebra. We also give the conditions for the rank invariance of the quadratic matrix expression $XPY=J$ subject to the linear quaternion matrix equations mentioned above.
