“…After that, Kågström [9] evaluates the normwise backward error of an approximate solution to the generalized Sylvester equation, and determines the sensitivity of the equation; Ghavimi and Laub [4] present a new backward error criterion, together with a sensitivity measure, for assessing solution accuracy of nonsymmetric and symmetric continuous-time algebraic Riccati equations. Normwise backward errors and residual bounds for continuous-time and discrete-time algebraic Riccati equations are obtained by the author [14], [15], [16]. This work, as a generalization of the results given by [15] and [16], derives normwise backward errors and residual bounds for an approximate Hermitian p.s.d.…”
