abstract = {Consider the problem of finding the maximal nonpositive solvent  Φ of the quadratic matrix equation (QME)  X2+BX+C=0 with  B being a nonsingular  M-matrix and  C an  M-matrix such that  B−1C≥0. Such QME arises from an overdamped vibrating system. Recently, under the condition that  B−C−I is a nonsingular  M-matrix, Yu et al. (Appl. Math. Comput., 218 (2011): 3303–3310) proved that  ρ(Φ)≤1 for this QME. In this paper, under the same condition, we slightly improve their result and prove that  ρ(Φ)&lt;1, which is important for the quadratic convergence of the structure-preserving doubling algorithm. Then, a new globally monotonically and quadratically convergent structure-preserving doubling algorithm for solving the QME is developed. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of our method.}
