On a new generalized inverse for matrices of an arbitrary index

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new generalized inverse, called DMP inverse, associated with a square complex matrix using its Drazin and Moore-Penrose inverses. DMP inverse extends the notion of core inverse, introduced by Baksalary and Trenkler for matrices of index at most 1 in (Baksalary and Trenkler (2010) [1]) to matrices of an arbitrary index. DMP inverses are analyzed from both algebraic as well as geometrical approaches establishing the equivalence between them.
