Abstract

In this paper, we give a computational formula for the Drazin inverse of the sum P+Q, then applying it we give some computational formulas for the Drazin inverse of block matrix (A and D are square) with generalized Schur complement S=DCA D B is nonsingular under some conditions. These results extend the results about the Drazin inverse of M given by R. Hartwig, X. Li and Y. Wei (SIAM J. Matrix Anal. Appl. 27:757–771, 2006) and by C. Deng (J. Math. Anal. Appl. 368:1–8, 2010).
