An iterative algorithm for the least Frobenius norm least squares solution of a class of generalized coupled Sylvester-transpose linear matrix equations

摘要

The iterative algorithm of a class of generalized coupled Sylvester-transpose matrix equations is presented. We prove that if the system is consistent, a solution can be obtained within finite iterative steps in the absence of round-off errors for any initial matrices; if the system is inconsistent, the least squares solution can be obtained within finite iterative steps in the absence of round-off errors. Furthermore, we provide a method for choosing the initial matrices to obtain the least Frobenius norm least squares solution of the problem. Finally, numerical examples are presented to demonstrate that the algorithm is efficient.
