Linear matrix equations with parameters forming a commuting set of diagonalizable matrices

Abstract: We prove that the following statements are equivalent: a linear matrix equation with parameters forming a commuting set of diagonalizable matrices is consistent, a certain matrix constructed with the Drazin inverse is a solution of this matrix equation, the attached standard linear matrix equation is consistent. The number of zero components of a given matrix (the relevant matrix) gives us the dimension of the affine space of solutions. We apply this theoretical results to the Sylvester equation, the Stein equation, and the Lyapunov equation. We present a description of the set of the diagonalizing matrices for a commuting sequence of diagonalizable matrices.
