The current study investigates the solvability conditions and general solution of three symmetrical systems coupled Sylvester-like quaternion matrix equations. Accordingly, necessary sufficient for consistency these are determined, solutions thereby deduced. An algorithm a numerical example constructed over quaternions to validate results this paper.

An involution or anti-involution is a self-inverse linear mapping. In this paper, we will present two real quaternion matrices, one corresponding to a real quaternion involution and one corresponding to a real quaternion anti-involution. Moreover, properties and geometrical meanings of these matrices will be given as reflections in R^3.

By using the complex representation of quaternion matrices, the Moore–Penrose generalized inverse and the Kronecker product of matrices, the expressions of the least squares η-Hermitian solution with the least norm and the expressions of the least squares η-anti-Hermitian solution with the least norm are derived for the matrix equation AXB+CXD = E over quaternions.

In this paper, we present some applications of quaternions and octonions. We present the real matrix representations for complex octonions and some of their properties which can be used in computations where these elements are involved. Moreover, we give a set of invertible elements in split quaternion algebras and in split octonion algebras.

In this paper, real matrix representations of split quaternions are examined in terms of the casual character of quaternion. Then, we give De-Moivre’ s formula for real matrices of timelike and spacelike split quaternions, separately. Finally, we state the Euler theorem for real matrices of pure split quaternions.

In this paper, a quaternion firefly algorithm is utilized to solve a multi-row facility layout design problem with the objective of minimizing the total cost of transportation. A quaternion firefly algorithm takes the motion of the firefly as a quaternion one. Consequently, the solution space is explored more accurately and the answers are of higher quality. That is, the answers are considerabl...

In this study, we develop a general method to solve the linear elliptic quaternionic matrix equations by means of real representation quaternion matrices. A pseudocode for our approach that provides solution is expressed. Moreover, apply well-known Slyvester and Kalman Yakubovich over algebra.

We present a practical and efficient means to compute the singular value decomposition (svd) of a quaternion matrix A based on bidiagonalization of A to a real bidiagonal matrix B using quaternionic Householder transformations. Computation of the svd of B using an existing subroutine library such as lapack provides the singular values of A. The singular vectors of A are obtained trivially from ...

Some complex quaternionic equations in the type AX - XB = C are investigated. For convenience, these equations were called generalized Sylvester-quaternion equations, which include the Sylvester equation as special cases. By the real matrix representations of complex quaternions, the necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability and the general expressions of the solutions are obtained.
