TL;DR: The problem of vanishing of a generalized Schur complement of a block matrix, implying that the other (generalized) Schur complements is zero, is revisited in this article, where absorption laws for two important classes of generalized inverses are considered.
Abstract: The problem of vanishing of a (generalized) Schur complement of a block matrix (corresponding to the leading principal subblock) implying that the other (generalized) Schur complement (corresponding to the trailing principal subblock) is zero, is revisited. Absorption laws for two important classes of generalized inverses are considered next. Inheritance properties of the generalized Schur complements in relation to the absorption laws are derived. Inheritance by the generalized principal pivot transform is also studied.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the consistency of the matrix equation C(BXC) = X, where X denotes the Moore-Penrose inverse and BXC denotes the compliance matrix.
Abstract: We study the matrix equation C(BXC)†B = X†, where X† denotes the Moore-Penrose inverse. We derive conditions for the consistency of the equation and express all its solutions using singular vectors of B and C. Applications to compliance matrices in molecular dynamics, to mixed reverse-order laws of generalized inverses and to weighted Moore-Penrose inverses are given.
