The following rational method of dealing with the reduction of a singular matrix pencil to canonical form has certain advantages. It is based on the principle of vector chains, the length of the chain determining a minimal index. This treatment is analogous to that employed by Dr A. C. Aitken and the author in Canonical Matrices (1932) 45–57, for the nonsingular case. In Theorems 1 and 2 tests are explicitly given for determining the minimal indices. Theorem 2 gives a method of discovering the lowest row (or column) minimal index. Theoretically it should be possible to state a corresponding theorem for each of these indices, not necessarily the lowest, and prior to any reduction of the pencil. This extension still awaits solution.

In a recent paper Turnbull, discussing a rational method for the reduction of a singular matrix pencil to canonical form, has shown how the lowest row, or column, minimal index may be determined directly without reducing the pencil to canonical form. It is the purpose of this note to show how all such indices may be determined, and at the same time to give conditions, somewhat simpler than the usual ones, for the equivalence of two matrix pencils.

Abstract The Kronecker canonical form (KCF) of matrix pencils plays an important role in many fields such as systems control and differential–algebraic equations. In this article, we compute a finite and infinite Jordan chain and also a singular chain of vectors corresponding to a full row rank matrix pencil using an extended algorithm, first introduced by Jones (1999, Ph.D. Thesis, Department of Mathematics, Loughborough University of Technology, Loughborough, UK). The proposed method exploits these vectors forming the chains corresponding to the finite and infinite eigenvalues and to the right minimal indices of the pencil. This leads to the computation of two transformation matrices for obtaining under strict equivalence the KCF of the pencil. An application to the study of homogeneous linear rectangular descriptor systems is considered and closed form solutions are obtained in terms of these two transformation matrices. All the results are illustrated with an example.

AbstractP. Van Dooren (1979) constructed an algorithm for computing all singular summands of Kronecker’s canonical form of a matrix pencil. His algorithm uses only unitary transformations, which improves its numerical stability. We extend Van Dooren’s algorithm to square complex matrices with respect to consimilarity transformations $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle A \mapsto SA{\bar S^{ - 1}} \end{array}$ and to pairs of m × n complex matrices with respect to transformations $\begin{array}{} \displaystyle (A,B) \mapsto (SAR,SB\bar R) \end{array}$, in which S and R are nonsingular matrices.
