In a ring with involution, we prove that a Drazin invertible element is pseudo core invertible if and only if its spectral idempotent is {1, 4}-invertible. As its applications, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for 1 − ba (resp., ba) being pseudo core invertible while 1 − ab (resp., ab) has pseudo core inverse, and the pseudo core inverse of 1 − ba (resp., ba) is given in terms of 1 − ab (resp., ab). Inspired by the above idea, Jacobson’s lemma for Moore-Penrose inverse is considered.
