On the Divisibility with Remainder of Polynomial Matrices Over an Arbitrary Field
摘要
We study the problem of divisibility with remainder of polynomial matrices over an arbitrary field F and establish the conditions under which, for a pair of polynomial matrices A(λ) and B(λ) over the field F , there exists a unique pair of polynomial matrices P(λ) and Q(λ) over F such that B(λ) = A(λ)P(λ) +Q(λ) . We also discuss the application of the obtained results to finding minimal solutions of the Sylvester-type matrix equation. It is proved that nonsingular polynomial matrices A(λ) and B(λ) over F have relatively prime determinants if and only if the matrix equation A(λ)X(λ) + Y (λ)B(λ) = C(λ) has a unique minimal solution for any nonzero matrix C(λ).
