Is $C(A)+C(B)=C(A+B)$, if $C(A)cap C(B)= {0}?$ where $C(A)$ denotes the column space of $A$.



It's true that, $DeclareMathOperator{rank}{rank}rank(A+B)=rank(A)+rank(B),$ if $C(A)cap C(B)= {0}$ so, I guess that may be the above statement is true.So, I tried to prove it, but can't make a reasonable progress.
So, any hints or counterexample?



Edited: As pointed out the above statement is not true.Then, under what conditions the above statement is true?

    Even so, actually, the statement doesn't hold. For instance, with $$ A = pmatrix{1\0}, B = pmatrix{0\1} $$ the column spaces are complimentary but $A + B$ has rank $1$.

Assuming that $C(A) cap C(B) = {0}$, it is not necessarily true that $operatorname{rank}(A+B) = operatorname{rank}(A) + operatorname{rank}(B)$, or that $C(A+B) = C(A) + C(B)$.



As a counterexample for both of these, consider the matrices
$$
A = pmatrix{1\0}, quad B = pmatrix{0\1}
$$

It is true, however, that $C(A+B) subset C(A) + C(B)$, and $operatorname{rank}(A+B) leq operatorname{rank}(A) + operatorname{rank}(B)$.
