A brief introduction to quaternion matrices and linear algebra and on bounded groups of quaternion matrices

Authors

Abstract:

The division algebra of real quaternions, as the only noncommutative normed division real algebra up to isomorphism of normed algebras, is of great importance. In this note, first we present a brief introduction to quaternion matrices and quaternion linear algebra. This, among other things, will help us present the counterpart of a theorem of Herman Auerbach in the setting of quaternions. More precisely, we prove that every bounded group of matrices with quaternion entries is similar to a group of unitary quaternion matrices.

Inverse Young inequality in quaternion matrices

Inverse Young inequality asserts that if $nu >1$, then $|zw|ge nu|z|^{frac{1}{nu}}+(1-nu)|w|^{frac{1}{1-nu}}$, for all complex numbers $z$ and $w$, and equality holds if and only if $|z|^{frac{1}{nu}}=|w|^{frac{1}{1-nu}}$. In this paper the complex representation of quaternion matrices is applied to establish the inverse Young inequality for matrices of quaternions. Moreover, a necessary and ...

Some results on higher numerical ranges and radii of quaternion matrices

‎Let $n$ and $k$ be two positive integers‎, ‎$kleq n$ and $A$ be an $n$-square quaternion matrix‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎some results on the $k-$numerical range of $A$ are investigated‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎the notions of $k$-numerical radius‎, ‎right $k$-spectral radius and $k$-norm of $A$ are introduced‎, ‎and some of their algebraic properties are studied‎.

Diagonalisation of covariance matrices in quaternion widely linear signal processing

Recent developments in quaternion-valued widely linear processing have established that the exploitation of complete second-order statistics requires consideration of both the standard covariance and the three complementary covariance matrices. Although such matrices have a tremendous amount of structure and their decomposition is a powerful tool in a variety of applications, the noncommutative...

The conjugate gradient algorithm applied to quaternion - valued matrices

The well known conjugate gradient algorithm (cg-algorithm), introduced by Hestenes & Stiefel, [1952] intended for real, symmetric, positive definite matrices works as well for complex matrices and has the same typical convergence behavior. It will also work, not generally, but in many cases for hermitean, but not necessarily positive definite matrices. We shall show, that the same behavior is s...
