Abstract
In this paper explicit formulas are given for least common multiples and greatest common divisors of a finite number of matrix polynomials in terms of the coefficients of the given polynomials. An important role is played by block matrix generalizations of the classical Vandermonde and resultant matrices. Special attention is given to the evaluation of the degrees and other characteristics. Applications to matrix polynomial equations and factorization problems are made.
