Questions tagged [generalized-inverse]

A generalized inverse of a matrix $A$ is any matrix $A^{-}$ satisfying $AA^{-}A = A$. When $A$ is nonsingular, $A^{-}$ is unique and $A^{-} = A^{-1}$; otherwise, there are infinitely many solutions to $A^{-}$. Generalized inverses arise in linear models for statistics, for when the design matrix of a linear model is not invertible and the ordinary least squares estimate of the parameter vector is not unique.

The title says it all. A generalized inverse is a left inverse but is the converse true as well? The same should then hold for right inverse. If not, what would be an example for matrices
