nonlinear equation problem

Can you please help me solve the following nonlinear equation to determine the value of the vector $z$ : $$ \boldsymbol{a}=\boldsymbol{z}^{2} \odot \boldsymbol{K}*\boldsymbol{z}^{-1}$$ Where:

  • $\boldsymbol{a}$ is a given vector with all positive entries.
  • $K$ is an element-wise positive, symmetric, and positive semi-definite matrix.
  • $\odot$ represents the element-wise product.
  • the exponents represent elementwise exponentiation
  • $*$ represents matrix multiplication.

Is there another approach or method to solve this equation?
