![]() That's like saying that the only solution to ax is equal That all the solutions to thisĪre all of these entries have to be equal to 0. The way down to xk equaling the zero vector. That's what linear independenceĪll the solutions to this equation x1, x2, all Solution to x1 times a1 plus x2 times a2, plus all the ![]() Now, what does that mean? That means that the only a2, all the way through akĪre linearly independent. This matrix A has a bunch ofĬolumns that are all linearly independent. Let's say it's not justĪny n by k matrix. left nullspace can also be shown that the transpose of the left nullspace times A on the left, so x^T * A = 0 If you have learned about left nullspaces, or the null space of the transpose of a matrix, that's what is here. This cannot be done due to the dimensions Linear independence means it will eventually be reduced to (Hopefully that makes sense what it should look like.) Now your solution is make a dot product with a perpendicular vector, which we could observe is So we have a 3x2 multiplied by a 3x1. To deal with the case you specifically offer let's use a 3x2 matrix. There will not be enough pivot columns to fill each column. If the rank is less than n like you offer, or in other words kn, so more columns than rows it is impossible to make the matrix linearly independent. Then you are solving the function Ax=0, so x must be a vector with k elements. As I understand it the columns/ vectors must be linearly independent.
