Uniqueness of a solution of a matrix












0














Given $A in C^{mtimes n}$ of rank $n$ and $b in C^{m}$, now consider the below system of equation
$$begin{equation}
r + Ax = b \
A^*r = 0
end{equation}$$

where $I$ is $m times m$ identity matrix. How can I show that $(r,x)^T$ is the unique solution where $r$ and $x$ are the residual and solution of below problem? $$minimize : ||Ax-b||_2 $$ This is a question from Numerical Algebra book by Lloyd.

          Denote by $mathcal C$ the column space of $A$. Then $mathcal C^perp=left{w: A^ast w=0right}$. Let $b=Au+v$ where $vinmathcal C^perp$. Then $|Ax-b|^2 = |A(x-u)|^2 + |v|^2$. Hence $|Ax-b|$ is minimised if and only if $|A(x-u)|$ is minimised, and your problem boils down to showing that the equation
          $$
          A(x-u) + (r-v) = 0,quad rinmathcal C^perp
          $$

          has a unique solution $(x,r)$ and this $x$ is also the unique global minimiser of $|A(x-u)|$. The rest should be straightforward.
