$A in mathbb{C}^{mtimes n}$,$A=FG^*$ and $r(A)=r(F)=r(G)$. Prove $A^dagger = G(F^*AG)^{-1}F^*$ and $A^dagger...
$begingroup$
Let $A^dagger$ be a Moore-Penrose inverse of a matrix $A$.
If $A in mathbb{C}^{mtimes n}$ and $A=FG^*$, for some $F,G$ and $r(A)=r(F)=r(G)$, prove that
$$A^dagger = G(F^*AG)^{-1}F^*$$ and $$A^dagger = (G^dagger)^*F^dagger.$$
I need to show this using SVD decomposition and maybe some other properties of a Moore-Penrose inverse.
I tried to show the statement by writing SVD decomposition of all the matrices included, but it just gets messy and I didn't succeed.
Any hints would be really helpful! Thanks in advance!

Both equalities are technically false. The first one is false because in general, $F^ast AG$ is not necessarily non-singular. For the second one, it is easy to generate a random counterexample when $F,G$ are "fat" matrices with more columns than rows.
However, both equalities are true when $F$ and $G$ are "tall" matrices of full column ranks and of the same sizes. In this case, we have $(F^ast AG)^{-1}=(F^ast FG^ast G)^{-1}=(G^ast G)^{-1}(F^ast F)^{-1}$ and $F^dagger F=G^dagger G=I$. Now you can easily prove that $A^dagger=G(G^ast G)^{-1}(F^ast F)^{-1}F^ast=(G^dagger)^ast F^dagger$ by verifying the four defining properties of Moore-Penrose pseudoinverse directly.

Where did you use the information about the ranks? Doesn't that maybe change the fact that $F^*AG$ is not always non-singular? I'm not sure that it does, but that information should be used. And also, I just wanted to say that $F^*AG$ is always well-defined because of $A=FG^*$.

@mathbbandstuff You are right that $F^ast AG$ is well defined. The ranks conditions are used, as said in the answer: $F^ast AG$ is always non-singular when $F$ and $G$ have full column ranks, but not so otherwise. E.g. $F^ast AG=1$ is nonsingular when $F=G=pmatrix{1\ 0}$, but $F^ast AG=pmatrix{1&0\ 0&0}$ is singular when $F=G=pmatrix{1&0}$. In both cases $F,G$ and $A$ are rank-1 matrices.
