Exercise 2.5.44

Answers

Inverting the identity A(I + BA) = (I + AB)A gives (I + BA)1A1 = A1(I+ AB)1. So I + BA and I + AB are both invertible or both singular when A is invertible. (This remains true also when A is singular: Chapter 6 will show that AB and BA have the same nonzero eigenvalues, and we are looking here at the eigenvalue 1.)
