Algebraic algorithms for least squares problem in quaternionic quantum theory

Quaternionic least squares (QLS) problem is one method of solving overdetermined sets of quaternion linear equations A X ≈ B that is appropriate when there is error in the matrix B. In this paper, by means of complex representation of a quaternion matrix, we introduce a concept of norm of quaternion...

Description
Summary:Quaternionic least squares (QLS) problem is one method of solving overdetermined sets of quaternion linear equations A X ≈ B that is appropriate when there is error in the matrix B. In this paper, by means of complex representation of a quaternion matrix, we introduce a concept of norm of quaternion matrices, discuss singular values and generalized inverses of a quaternion matrix, study the QLS problem and derive two algebraic methods for finding solutions of the QLS problem in quaternionic quantum theory.
