| The constrained matrix equation and its least-squares solution problems have been widely used in structural design, biology, electrical, structural dynamics, solid mechanics, automatic control, vibration theory, nonlinear programming, dynamic analysis and so on. The research works on constrained matrix equations have significant theoretical and practical value. In this paper, we study the following problems:Problemâ… Given A∈Rm×n,B∈Rn×p,C∈Rm×p. S (?)Rn×nis a special matrix. Find X∈Sn×n, such that AXB =C.Problemâ…¡Given A∈Rm×n,B∈Rn×p,C∈Rm×p. S ?Rn×nis a special matrix.

The first three problems for the matrix equation AXB =C,(1) When S is the set all central symmetry matrices, we have studied Problemâ… and Problemâ…¡by using the generalized singular value decomposition(GSVD) and the canonical correction decomposition(CCD). We given some arithmetic and numeric example. (2) When is the set all bisymmetric matrices, we have studied Problemâ… , Problemâ…¡and Problemâ…¢, obtained the solvability conditions and the expressions of S solutions of this three problems. And given some arithmetic and numeric example for Problemâ…¢.(3) When S is the set all symmetric and sub-anti-symmetric matrices, we have studied Problemâ… and Problemâ…¢, and obtained the solvability conditions and the expressions of solutions of this two problems.2. The last two problems for XT AX= B, matrix equation XT AX=B can be considered as a special case of AXB = C, we have discussed the symmetric and sub-anti-symmetric problem, central symmetry problem and the least-squares approximation solutions by using GSVD. |
