Reverse order law for the Moore-Penrose inverses of tensors are useful in the field of multilinear algebra. In this paper, we first prove some more identities involving the Moore-Penrose inverse of tensors. We then obtain a few necessary and sufficient conditions for the reverse order law for the Moore-Penrose inverse of tensors via the Einstein product.

In this paper, we first give an expression for the Moore-Penrose inverse of the product of two tensors via the Einstein product. We then introduce a new generalized inverse of a tensor called product Moore-Penrose inverse. A necessary and sufficient condition for the coincidence of the Moore-Penrose inverse and the product Moore-Penrose inverse is also proposed. Finally, the triple reverse order law of tensors is introduced.

In this paper, we provide a few properties of the weighted Moore-Penrose inverse for an arbitrary order tensor via the Einstein product. We again obtain some new sufficient conditions for the reverse-order law of the weighted Moore-Penrose inverse for even-order square tensors. We then present several characterizations of the reverse-order law for tensors of arbitrary order.

The equality (A * N B) † = B † * N A † for any two complex tensors A and B of arbitrary order, is called as the reverse-order law for the Moore-Penrose inverse of arbitrary order tensors via the Einstein product. Panigrahy et al. [Linear Multilinear Algebra; 68 (2020), 246-264.] obtained several necessary and sufficient conditions to hold the reverse-order law for the Moore-Penrose inverse of even-order tensors via the Einstein product, very recently. This notion is revisited here among other results. In this context, we present several new characterizations of the reverse-order law of arbitrary order tensors via the same product. More importantly, we illustrate a result on the Moore-Penrose inverse of a sum of two tensors as an application of the reverse-order law which leaves an open problem. We recall the definition of the Frobenius norm and the spectral norm to illustrate a result for finding the additive perturbation bounds of the Moore-Penrose inverse under the Frobenius norm. We conclude our paper with the introduction of the notion of sub-proper splitting for tensors which may help to find an iterative solution of a tensor multilinear system.
