On the mixed-type generalized inverses of the products of two operators

Abstract

Let A, B and AB be closed range operators. The explicit matrix expressions for various generalized inverses are obtained by using block operator matrix methods. Some subtle relationships between the properties of sub-blocks in operator matrices A, B and their range relations are built. New necessary and sufficient conditions for the equivalent relations, inclusion relations and mixed-type generalized inverses relations are presented. Some recent mixed-type reverse-order laws results are covered and many new mixed-type generalized inverses relations are established by using this block-operator matrix technique.
