Description
Summary:Let R be an n by n nontrivial real symmetric involution matrix, that is, R=R−1=RT≠In. An n×n complex matrix A is termed R-conjugate if A¯=RAR, where A¯ denotes the conjugate of A. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the Hermitian R-conjugate solution to the system of complex matrix equations AX=C and XB=D and present an expression of the Hermitian R-conjugate solution to this system when the solvability conditions are satisfied. In addition, the solution to an optimal approximation problem is obtained. Furthermore, the least squares Hermitian R-conjugate solution with the least norm to this system mentioned above is considered. The representation of such solution is also derived. Finally, an algorithm and numerical examples are given.
