Let $A in mathbbR^m times n, B in mathbbR^p times n$. Show that $A^TA+ B^TB$ is invertible if and only if $ker A cap ker B =lbrace 0 rbrace$.




I could show that if it's invertible, then $ker A cap ker B= lbrace 0 rbrace$. Any help for the converse?

$newcommandmathbf0newcommandxmathbfx$Hints: Recall or try and show that $colorbluex^T M^T Mx = 0text iff x in ker M$ for any matrix $M$, and recall that for any square matrix, it is invertible iff its kernel is $$. Then to show the converse, your goal is to show that if $ker A cap ker B = $, then $A^T A + B^T B$ has kernel $ $. To show this, suppose that $x in kerleft(A^T A + B^T Bright)$ and try and deduce that $x = $. Note also that $x^T left(A^T A + B^T Bright) x = x^T A^T A x + x^T B^T Bx$.

    Here's an approach: suppose that $A^TA + B^TB$ is not invertible. Then, there exists a non-zero vector $x$ such that $(A^TA + B^TB)x = 0$. It follows that
    $$
    0 = x^T(A^TA + B^TB)x = (Ax)^T(Ax) + (Bx)^T(Bx) = |Ax|^2 + |Bx|^2
    $$

    conclude that $x in ker(A) cap ker(B)$.
