I is the identity matrix.



Let D ∈ $R^{ntimes m}$ and E ∈ $R^{mtimes n}$



Show that if I − ED is nonsingular, then I − DE is nonsingular
and



$(I − DE)^{−1} = I + D(I − ED)^{−1}E$



i don't get how to this first of all i don't get how i could show the first proof. Because DE and ED are different dimensions i don't get how to you could ever compare them.



Second i dont get how to show that the equation is true because the I-ED is inbetween the E and D and with matrices you can't just multiple in any order i thought so i don't get how to get rid of it.

Compute the product of the matrix $I-DE$ and its wannabe inverse $I+D(I-ED)^{-1}E$:
$$
(I+D(I-ED)^{-1}E)(I-DE)=I-DE + D(I-ED)^{-1}E(I-DE)\=I-DE + D(I-ED)^{-1}(I-ED)E=I-DE+DE=I.
$$

The product is the identity, which proves the claim.

    We can show that $I-DE$ is nonsingular by contradiction. If it is singular, there is a vector $vinmathbb{R}^n$ such that
    $$ (I-DE) v = 0 .$$
    Consider $w = E vinmathbb{R}^m$.
    $$(I-ED)w = E v - EDE v = E (I-DE) v = 0$$
    so $I-ED$ is also singular (contradiction). Therefore, $I-DE$ is not singular.



    The form of the inverse is verified with simple matrix algebra, see daw's answer.

              We can show that $I-DE$ is nonsingular by contradiction. If it is singular, there is a vector $vinmathbb{R}^n$ such that
              $$ (I-DE) v = 0 .$$
              Consider $w = E vinmathbb{R}^m$.
              $$(I-ED)w = E v - EDE v = E (I-DE) v = 0$$
              so $I-ED$ is also singular (contradiction). Therefore, $I-DE$ is not singular.
