This question might be so elementary , but I love to see some geometric/algebraic approach for these facts concerning transpose matrix. I know some basic thing about DUAL space but those are not satisfying in the way I know.



$1. : rank (A)=rank(A^t)$



$2. : ker (A) = co-image(A^t)$



$3. : co-ker(A)= image(A^t)$




P.S. One may re-state the third fact as



$$Ax=0 , x^ty=0 implies exists z: A^tz=y$$



Is there any simple way just using basic algebra to prove the fact?



Thanks community

  • $Ax=0$ iff $x^tA^t=0$ and thus $ker(A)=im(A^t)^perp$, what is $co$?
