Drazin Inverse
The Drazin inverse is a matrix inverse-like object derived from a given square matrix. In particular, let the index k of a square matrix be defined as the smallest nonnegative integer such that the matrix rank satisfies rank(A^(k+1))=rank(A^k). Then the Drazin inverse is the unique matrix A^D such that
A^(k+1)A^D = A^k
(1)
A^DAA^D = A^D
(2)
AA^D = A^DA.
(3)
If A is an invertible matrix with matrix inverse A^(-1), then A^D=A^(-1).
The Drazin inverse is implemented in the Wolfram Language as DrazinInverse [m].
