Let \(U\) be a unitary (orthogonal) operator on \(V\), and let \(W\) be a subspace invariant under \(U\). Show that \(W^{\perp}\) is also invariant under \(U\)
Prove Theorem 13.11: Let \(T\) be a symmetric operator on a real \(n\) -dimensional inner product space \(V\). Then there exists an orthonormal basis of \(V\) consisting of eigenvectors of \(T\). (Hence, \(T\) can be represented by a diagonal matrix relative to an orthonormal basis.)
Show that \((\mathrm{a}) \quad I^{*}=I,\) and \((\mathrm{b}) \quad 0^{*}=0\)
Show that there exists an orthonormal basis \(\left\\{u_{1}, \ldots, u_{n}\right\\}\) of \(V\) consisting of eigenvectors of \(T\) if and only if there exist orthogonal projections \(E_{1}, \ldots, E_{r}\) and scalars \(\lambda_{1}, \ldots, \lambda_{r}\) such that (i) \(T=\lambda_{1} E_{1}+\cdots+\lambda_{r} E_{r}\) (ii) \(\quad E_{1}+\cdots+E_{r}=I\) (iii) \(\quad E_{i} E_{j}=0 \quad\) for \(\quad i \neq j\)
Find the adjoint of \(G: \mathbf{C}^{3} \rightarrow \mathbf{C}^{3}\) defined by G(x, y, z)=[2 x+(1-i) y, \quad(3+2 i) x-4 i z, \quad 2 i x+(4-3 i) y-3 z]
