Abstract

In this study, first we derive a novel iteration scheme for the sign of a matrix with no pure imaginary eigenvalues. The fourth-order convergence speed of this scheme is given in detail. Secondly, we extend the obtained results so as to calculate the solution of the Yang–Baxter-like equation for the matrix A with no pure imaginary eigenvalues. Some numerical tests are also furnished to manifest the applicability of our method.
