First show that the equalizer should be a matrix with rows such that , such that for every other matrix with rows and there exists a unique factorization . Then investigate what you can say about the columns of a matrix that satisfies . Show that this condition is equivalent to the condition that every column of is contained in the null space of . Now suppose is a basis for the null space of . To say is contained in the null space of then means there is a unique -linear combination with . The matrix should reveal to be related to the matrix By way a matrix ...
