The Drazin inverse is a type of generalized inverse of a matrix that exists for any square matrix, specifically designed for matrices that are not necessarily invertible. This inverse is particularly useful when dealing with singular matrices, allowing one to derive solutions in contexts like differential equations and control theory. The Drazin inverse maintains key properties, such as being a solution to certain equations that ordinary inverses cannot satisfy, which broadens the scope of linear algebra applications.
congrats on reading the definition of Drazin. now let's actually learn it.
