“…It was discovered by Hamilton in 1843, and has many applications in recent research areas such as computer graphics, control theory, and signal processing (see, e.g., [2,6,7,8,17,18,21,22]). One of the research directions in this area is solving matrix equations over H. In the literature, the generalized Sylvester matrix equation AX − XB = C and Stein matrix equation X − AX B = C have been well studied over real numbers R and complex numbers C due to many applications in control theory (see, e.g., [1,3,4,5,13,16,20,25,27,30]). Because of the non-commutative algebraic structure of H, solving matrix equations over H appears more challenging and has attracted more and more attentions recently.…”
