A.12 Generalized Inverse
www.stt.msu.edu › users › pszhong(a)–(c) follow from the definition of an idempotent matrix. A.12 Generalized Inverse Definition A.62 Let A be an m × n-matrix. Then a matrix A−: n × m is said to be a generalized inverse of A if AA−A = A holds (see Rao (1973a, p. 24). Theorem A.63 A generalized inverse always exists although it is not unique in general. Proof: Assume ...
