AbstractWe present the conditions for a block matrix of a ring to have the image-kernel{(p,q)}-inverse in the generalized Banachiewicz–Schur form. We give representations for the image-kernel inverses of the sum and the product of two block matrices. Some characterizations of the image-kernel{(p,q)}-inverse in a ring with involution are investigated too.
