Let $X_0, A in mathbf R^n times n$ be symmetric positive semidefinite matrices, and consider the equation
$$
dot X = - X A X, qquad X(0) = X_0.
$$

Does this equation admit an explicit solution (possibly in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of $A$ or $X_0$)? If not, is there a standard way of approaching it, in order to for example deduce convergence rates to equilibrium?



Edit: diagonalizing $A$ as $V D V^T$ and introducing $Y = V^TXV$, we can write the following equation for $Y$:
$$ dot Y = - YDY, qquad Y(0) = Y_0:= V^T X_0V.$$

    Is it something like $X=(At+C)^-1$, where $dotx=fracdxdt$?

    Yes, I was thinking about this too, but it's already a good partial solution. Thank you very much!

    I was just thinking about the case where $X=f(At)$, and $f$ can be expanded in a power series, so that $A$ commutes with $X$, and then you can just solve the ode $dotX=-AX^2$ which is separable.
