On the Moore–Penrose inverse of a sum of matrices
Oskar Maria Baksalary, K. C. Sivakumar, Götz Trenkler · Linear and Multilinear Algebra · 2022
The paper considers various problems concerned with the Moore–Penrose inverse of a sum of two matrices. By establishing several original results and by combining various facts known in the literature, the article reveals a number of emerging features of the inverse. The investigations shed also a spotlight on different proving approaches useful to cope with the problems in question. Rather than focusing exclusively on the main topic, the considerations endeavour to place it in a wider context, linking it with different matrix notions, facts, and tools, as well as indicating areas of its applications originating from, e.g. computational methods, physics, statistics, discriminant analysis, or neuroscience.
