Abstract

W.E. Roth (1952) proved that the matrix equation AXXB=CAX-XB=C has a solution if and only if the matrices [AC0B]\left[\begin{matrix}A&C\\0&B\end{matrix}\right] and [A00B]\left[\begin{matrix}A&0\\0&B\end{matrix}\right] are similar. A. Dmytryshyn and B. K{\aa}gstr\"om (2015) extended Roth's criterion to systems of matrix equations AiXiMiNiXiσiBi=CiA_iX_{i'}M_i-N_iX_{i''}^{\sigma_i} B_i=C_i (i=1,,s)(i=1,\dots,s) with unknown matrices X1,,XtX_1,\dots,X_t, in which every XσX^{\sigma} is XX, XTX^T, or XX^*. We extend their criterion to systems of complex matrix equations that include the complex conjugation of unknown matrices. We also prove an analogous criterion for systems of quaternion matrix equations.
