Abstract

L.Huang [Linear Algebra Appl. 331 (2001) 21-30] gave a canonical form of a quaternion matrix AA with respect to consimilarity transformations S~1AS\tilde{S}^{-1}AS in which SS is a nonsingular quaternion matrix and h~:=abi+cjdk\tilde{h}:=a-bi+cj-dk for each quaternion h=a+bi+cj+dkh=a+bi+cj+dk. We give an analogous canonical form of a quaternion matrix with respect to consimilarity transformations S^1AS\hat{S}^{-1}AS in which hh^h\mapsto\hat{h} is an arbitrary involutive automorphism of the skew field of quaternions. We apply the obtained canonical form to the quaternion matrix equations AXX^B=CAX-\hat{X}B=C and XAX^B=CX-A\hat{X}B=C.
