Let A and B be matrices having more rows than columns. It's obvious that if [A,B] has full column rank, then A and B have full column rank. But what if [A,B]^T has full column rank. Then it doesn't imply that A or B have full column rank, right? (Also the converse direction doesn't work, right?)

Let A = [ 1 0 0 0 0 0 ] and B = [ 0 0 1 0 0 1 ] . Then [ A , B ] has full column rank but A does not.
