Polynomial matrix equations

Polynomial matrix equations involve matrices—collections of numbers arranged in rows and columns—where the unknowns are matrices themselves, and these are expressed in polynomial form. This means that the equations can include terms like \(A^2\) or \(AB\), where \(A\) and \(B\) are matrices. Solving these equations is important in various fields such as control theory, computer graphics, and systems engineering, as they help describe complex systems or relationships mathematically. Understanding how to manipulate and solve these equations allows researchers and engineers to model and analyze real-world problems effectively.
