摘要
Let H be a Hermitian matrix which has been decomposed into in rows and in columns of blocks. Suppose further that we know the inertia of each diagonal block and a range of possible ranks for each off-diagonal block. What are the possible inertias of H? In this paper, a conjecture on the inertias of Hermitian matrices with a prescribed 3 x 3 block decomposition is presented, based on several important works on the subject.
