The solvability conditions and exact solutions to some quaternion tensor systems

Abstract

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of the exact solution to the Sylvester-type quaternion tensor system $ \mathcal{A}_i\ast_{N}\mathcal{X}_i+ \mathcal{Y}_i\ast_{M}\mathcal{B}_i+\mathcal{C}_i\ast_{N} \mathcal{Z}_i\ast_{M}\mathcal{D}_i+\mathcal{F}_i\ast_{N} \mathcal{Z}_{i+1}\ast_{M}\mathcal{G}_i=\mathcal{E}_i, i=\overline{1,3} $ using Moore-Penrose inverse, and present an expression of the general solution to the system when it is solvable. As an application of this system, we provide the solvability conditions and general solutions for the Sylvester-type quaternion tensor system $ \mathcal{A}_i\ast_{N}\mathcal{Z}_i\ast_{M}\mathcal{B}_i+ \mathcal{C}_i\ast_{N}\mathcal{Z}_{i+1}\ast_{M}\mathcal{D}_i= \mathcal{E}_i, i=\overline{1,4}. $ This paper can also serve as extensions to some known results.
