We provide a closed formula for the dimension of the solution space of the equation in terms of the Kronecker canonical form of the matrix pencil A+B, and we also provide an expression for the solution X in terms of this canonical form, together with two invertible matrices leading A+B to the canonical form by strict equivalence.application/pdfeng© 2013 Taylor & FrancisMatrix equationsMatrix pencilsKronecker canonical formTransposeConjugate transpose Sylvester equationThe solution of the equation AX+BX*=0research articleMatemáticas10.1080/03081087.2012.750656open access1605121628Linear and Multilinear Algebra61AR/0000014275
