Abstract: In this paper, we study the nonlinear matrix equation X - AHX-1A = Q, where A, Q ∈ ℂn×n, Q is a Hermitian positive definite matrix and X ∈ ℂn×n is an unknown matrix. We prove that the equation always has a unique Hermitian positive definite solution. We present two structure-preserving-doubling like algorithms to find the Hermitian positive definite solution of the equation, and the convergence theories are established. Finally, we show the effectiveness of the algorithms by numerical experiments.
