Specific features of cosquares of special matrices in indefinite metric spaces

Abstract: As is known, the cosquare of an arbitrary nonsingular Hermitian matrix is the identity matrix, and the cosquare of an arbitrary unitary matrix is again unitary. In a complex linear space with the symplectic metric, symplectic and skew-Hamiltonian matrices are the counterparts of unitary and Hermitian matrices, respectively. Specific features of cosquares for these two matrix classes are indicated.

Key words and phrases: congruences, cosquare, Hermitian matrices, unitary matrices, skew-Hamiltonian matrices, symplectic matrices.
