A structure-preserving doubling algorithm for the square root of regular M-matrix

The matrix square root is widely encountered in many fields of mathematics. In this paper, based on the properties of M-matrix and quadratic matrix equations, we study the square root of M-matrix, and prove that for a regular M-matrix there always exists a regular M-matrix as its square root.

description The matrix square root is widely encountered in many fields of mathematics. In this paper, based on the properties of M-matrix and quadratic matrix equations, we study the square root of M-matrix, and prove that for a regular M-matrix there always exists a regular M-matrix as its square root. In addition, a structure-preserving doubling algorithm is proposed to compute the square root. Theoretical analysis and numerical experiments are given to show that our method is feasible and is effective under certain conditions.
