Coordinatewise conjugation in an orthonormal basis #
There is no canonical conjugation on an abstract inner product space, so this file attaches one to
an orthonormal basis e by conjugating the coordinates in it:
conjugation e x = ∑ i, conj ⟪e i, x⟫ • e i. It is a conjugate-linear isometric involution of V
(TauCeti.conjugation_conjugation, TauCeti.inner_conjugation_conjugation), and conjugating an
operator by it, A ↦ J ∘ A ∘ J (TauCeti.conjCLM), is the coordinate-free description of
conjugating the matrix of A entrywise.
Main definitions #
TauCeti.conjugation: the conjugate-linear isometric involution attached to an orthonormal basis.TauCeti.conjCLM: conjugation of a continuous linear operator,A ↦ J ∘ A ∘ J.
Main statements #
TauCeti.conjugation_conjugationandTauCeti.inner_conjugation_conjugation: conjugation is an involution, and reverses the inner product.TauCeti.conjugation_basis: the basis it is attached to is fixed vector by vector, which is what makes it the conjugation of that basis.TauCeti.inner_conjugation_left_basis: pairing a conjugate against a basis vector swaps the two arguments of the inner product.TauCeti.conjCLM_one,TauCeti.conjCLM_mulandTauCeti.conjCLM_conjCLM: conjugation of operators is a multiplicative involution fixing the identity.TauCeti.conjCLM_addandTauCeti.conjCLM_smul: it is additive and conjugate-linear, so with the two preceding it is a conjugate-linear ring involution of the operators.TauCeti.norm_conjCLM: conjugation of operators preserves the operator norm.
Coordinatewise conjugation in an orthonormal basis. A conjugate-linear isometric involution
of V, which on coordinates is x i ↦ conj (x i).

Instances For
Conjugation, expanded as the coordinate sum defining it.
The coordinates of a conjugate are the conjugated coordinates.
Conjugation fixes the zero vector.
Conjugation is additive.
Conjugation is conjugate-linear: a scalar comes out conjugated.
Conjugation commutes with negation.
Conjugation commutes with subtraction.
Conjugation is an involution.
Conjugation fixes the basis it is attached to. Coordinatewise conjugation is the identity
on the vectors whose coordinates are 0 and 1.
Conjugation reverses the inner product: it is conjugate-linear and isometric.
Pairing a conjugate against a basis vector swaps the arguments. Conjugation fixes e j, so
the reversal of the inner product turns ⟪J x, e j⟫ into ⟪e j, x⟫. This is the form in which the
conjugation is contracted against a coordinate.
Conjugation is isometric, as the reversal of the inner product shows on the diagonal.
Conjugation of a continuous linear operator, A ↦ J ∘ A ∘ J for J the conjugation of e.
The two conjugate-linearities of J cancel, so the result is 𝕜-linear, and it is bounded because
J is isometric.

Instances For
Evaluation of a conjugated operator.
Conjugation fixes the identity, because J is an involution.
Conjugation is multiplicative, again because J is an involution: the two inner copies of J
cancel.
Conjugation of operators is an involution, because J is.
Conjugation kills the zero operator.
Conjugation of operators is additive.
Conjugation of operators commutes with negation.
Conjugation commutes with subtraction of operators.
Conjugation of operators is conjugate-linear: a scalar of the operator passes through the
outer J only, so it comes out conjugated.
Conjugation does not increase the operator norm.
Conjugation preserves the operator norm: it does not increase it, and it is an involution.
Conjugation of operators is a contraction, hence continuous.
