Suppose $A,B$ are $ntimes n$ positive definite real symmetric matrices,P is an $ntimes n$ real matrix, prove that
$A>P^TB^-1P$ iff $B>PA^-1P^T$.




By using the orthogonal diagonalization, I can prove this when $P$ is nonsingular. I have tried Polar decomposition, but I didn't know how to deal with $P$, since it can be singular.
