Title: The nullity theorem for principal pivot transform
Authors: BRIJDER, Robert

Abstract: We generalize the nullity theorem of Gustafson (1984) [8] from matrix inversion to principal pivot transform. Several special cases of the obtained result are known in the literature, such as a result concerning local complementation on graphs. As an application, we show that a particular matrix polynomial, the so-called nullity polynomial, is invariant under principal pivot transform. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
