Abstract
Some mixed-type reverse-order laws for the Moore-Penrose inverse
of a matrix product are established. Necessary and sufficient
conditions for these laws to hold are found by the matrix rank
method. Some applications and extensions of these reverse-order
laws to the weighted Moore-Penrose inverse are also given.
