Abstract. A set of new formulae for the inverse of a block Hankel (or block Toeplitz) matrix is given. The formulae are expressed in terms of certain matrix Pad6 forms, which approximate a matrix power series associated with the block Hankel matrix.By using Frobenius-type identities between certain matrix Pad6 forms, the inversion formulae are shown to generalize the formulae of Gohberg-Heinig and, in the scalar case, the formulae of Gohberg-Semencul and Gohberg-Krupnik.The new formulae have the significant advantage of requiring only that the block Hankel matrix itself be nonsingular. The other formulae require, in addition, that certain submatrices be nonsingular.Since effective algorithms for computing the required matrix Pad6 forms are available, the formulae are practical. Indeed, some of the algorithms allow for the efficient calculation of the inverse not only of the given block Hankel matrix, but also of any nonsingular block principal minor.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
