China Abstract For projective matrix R, i.e., R2 = R, we say that a matrix A is generalized projective symmetric (generalized projective Hermitian symmetric), if RAR = A (RAR = A∗). Denote by Ψ be the one of the two classes of matrix sets. In this paper, we establish the sufficient and necessary conditions for the consistence of matrix equation AX = B with unknown A∈ Ψ. Meanwhile, the inverse eigenvalue problem for the generalized projective symmetric matrices is solved as a special case. Moreover, when the solvability conditions does not hold, we consider the associated least-square problem of matrix equation AX = B , and derive the general expression of the solution. In addition, we also obtain the optimal approximation solution for given matrix in the solution set of the above matrix equation.
