Woodbury matrix identity with a minus sign

Is there a form of Woodbury matrix identity $(A + UCV )^{-1} = A^{-1} - A^{-1}U (C^{-1} + VA^{-1}U )^{-1} VA^{-1}$ But with a minus sign? i.e. $(A - UCV )^{-1}$ It seems like I have to painfully ...

Any decomposition of inverse of nonnegative diagonal matrix times a PSD matrix plus lambda times Identity?

I generally have to solve the following system: $$ (DA + \lambda I)^{-1} v $$ where $D$ is a diagonal matrix with nonnegative entries, $A$ a symmetric, positive semi-definite (PSD) matrix, $I$ is the ...

Quadratic form of a matrix where non-standard decomposition is known

Let $1\le m<<n$ for integers $m,n$. I have two symmetric matrices of size $n\times n$, say $A$ and $B$. My goal here is to know a simple form, or an upper bound on the following quadratic form: $...

Derivation of inverse matrix [duplicate]

My question is about how can reach to the formula $$\frac{dA^{-1}}{dt}=-A^{-1}\frac{dA}{dt}A^{-1}$$ when $A$ is a matrix. It is very similar to $$\frac{dx^{-1}}{dt}=-x^{-2}\frac{dx}{dt}$$And I know we ...

Inverse of part of block matrix

I am trying to write a proof and, in order to do so, I have to simplify the following $$ \left( E H B^{-1} \right)^b \bigg(\big(V-VH(B+HVH)^{-1}HV\big)^{bb}\bigg)^{-1}$$ where $b$ indicates the rows ...

How to obtain this simplification

I was studying a linear algebra problem and I encountered this step in the solution : \begin{aligned} & \mathbf{1}^T\left(\mathbf{1 1}^T+I \sigma_v^2\right)^{-1} y =\left(\mathbf{1}^T \mathbf{1}+\...

Compute $PSP^{-1} y$ without computing matrix inverse

Let $P$ (symmetric) and $S$ be two matrices of size $N \times N$, and $y$ be a vector of size $N \times 1$. I would like to compute $PSP^{-1} y$ without computing $P^{-1}$ because, in my case, $P$ is ...

Numerical stability of a matrix inversion problem

Suppose, we have a matrix X with dimension m and n. Now lets say, we are interested to find the inverse of the covariance matrix: $X^T X$. The straightforward way to do it is to compute the matrix $X^...

Decomposition of inverse of sum of block diagonal matrices

I have $K$ binary matrices $Z_k$ of dimension $n \times q_k$. These matrices are the kind you would get when performing one-hot encoding on a categorical variable, e.g. for $n = 7$ and a categorical ...

$(I+vw^T)^{-1}=I -\dfrac{vw^T}{1+w^Tv}$ implies $w^Tv=vw^T$

Let $I$ be a $n$ x $n$ matrix, and $v$ and $w$ a nonzero $n$ x $1$ column matrix. Imagine $vw^T$ is nonsingular (therefore $(vw^T)^{-1}$ exist). Here is my prove: $(I+vw^T)^{-1}=I-\dfrac{vw^T}{1+w^Tv} ...
