Abstract
Conditions for the existence of a common solution X for the linear matrix equations UiXVj = Wi j for 1 ≤ i, j < k with i + j ≤ k, where the given matrices Ui, Vj,Wi j and the unknown matrix X have suitable dimensions, are derived. Verifiable necessary and sufficient solvability con-ditions, stated directly in terms of the given matrices and not using Kronecker products, are also presented. As an application, a version of the almost triangular decoupling problem is studied, and conditions for its solvability in transfer matrix and state space terms are presented.
