We return to the example of subsection II.B with $\mu = 1$, i.e. $$A(1) = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & -1 & 1 \\ -1 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1 & 1 \end{pmatrix}$$ A matrix $K \in \mathcal{M}_{n}(\mathbb{R})$ is called $F$-singular if there exists a non-zero $X \in F$ such that $\forall Z \in F, Z^{\top}KX = 0$.
Determine a vector subspace $F$ of $E_{3}$ such that $\dim F = 1$ and such that $A(1)$ is $F$-singular.
