Generalizing Frobenius Inversion to Quaternion Matrices

Qiyuan Chen, J. Uhlmann, Ke Ye

In this paper we derive and analyze an algorithm for inverting quaternion matrices. The algorithm is an analogue of the Frobenius algorithm for the complex matrix inversion. On the…

Complex matrix inversion via real matrix inversions

Zhen Dai, Lek-Heng Lim, Ke Ye

We study the inversion analog of the well-known Gauss algorithm for multiplying complex matrices. A simple version is $(A + iB)^{-1} = (A + BA^{-1}B)^{-1} - i A^{-1}B(A+BA^{-1} B)^…
