Additive results for the Drazin inverse of block matrices and applications

In this paper, we consider the Drazin inverse of a sum of two matrices and derive additive formulas under conditions weaker than those used in some recent papers on the subject. As a corollary we get the main results from the paper of Yang and Liu [H. Yang, X. Liu, The Drazin inverse of the sum of two matrices and its applications, J. Comput. Appl. Math. 235 (2011) 1412–1417]. As an application we give some new representations for the Drazin inverse of a block matrix.
