Iterative solutions to coupled Sylvester-conjugate matrix equations

This paper is concerned with iterative solutions to the coupled Sylvester-conjugate matrix equation with a unique solution. By applying a hierarchical identification principle, an iterative algorithm is established to solve this class of complex matrix equations. With a real representation of a complex matrix as a tool, a sufficient condition is given to guarantee that the iterative solutions given by the proposed algorithm converge to the exact solution for any initial matrices. In addition, a sufficient convergence condition that is easier to compute is also given by the original coefficient matrices. Finally, a numerical example is given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
