Abstract

For any n ×  p matrix X and n ×  n nonnegative definite matrix V, the matrix X(XV X)+ XV is called a V-orthogonal projector with respect to the semi-norm \(\| \cdot \|_{\bf V}\) , where (·)+ denotes the Moore-Penrose inverse of a matrix. Various new properties of the V-orthogonal projector were derived under the condition that rank(V X) =  rank(X), including its rank, complement, equivalent expressions, conditions for additive decomposability, equivalence conditions between two (V-)orthogonal projectors, etc.
