Abstract
Matrix decompositions play a prominent role in the theoretical study and numerical calculation of split quaternion mechanics. This paper, by means of a complex representation of split quaternion matrices, introduces Gaussian elimination of split quaternion matrices, and obtains a complex structure-preserving algorithm for split quaternion matrix LDU decomposition. Numerical examples show that the complex structure-preserving algorithm is more efficient.
