In this paper, we discuss the problem for the induced\u0000Aluthge transforms which is a generalization of the Aluthge transform defined\u0000in 2021. We give the polar decomposition of the induced Aluthge transformations\u0000of centered operators and show its iteration converges to a normal operator.

Using the canonical standard form of\u0000matrix algebras we show that the iteration of any induced Aluthge\u0000transformations with respect to the weighted arithmetic mean and the power mean\u0000converge.
