Abstract

Some mixed-type reverse-order laws for the Moore-Penrose inverse of a matrix product are established. Necessary and sufficient conditions for these laws to hold are found by the matrix rank method. Some applications and extensions of these reverse-order laws to the weighted Moore-Penrose inverse are also given.
