MATH 421/510 Assignment 3 MATH 421/510 Assignment 3 Suggested Solutions February 2018 1. Let H be a Hilbert space. (a) Prove the polarization identity: 1 hx; yi = (kx + yk2 − kx − yk2 + ikx + iyk2 − ikx − iyk2): 4 Proof. By direct calculation, kx + yk2 − kx − yk2 = 2hx; yi + 2hy; xi: Similarly, kx + iyk2 − kx − iyk2 = 2hx; iyi − 2hy; ixi = −2ihx; yi + 2ihy; xi: Addition gives kx + yk2−kx − yk2+ikx + iyk2−ikx − iyk2 = 2hx; yi+2hy; xi+2hx; yi−2hy; xi = 4hx; yi: (b) If there is another Hilbert space H0, a linear map from H to H0 is unitary if and only if it is isometric and surjective. Proof. We take the definition from the book that an operator is unitary if and only if it is invertible and hT x; T yi = hx; yi for all x; y 2 H. A unitary operator T is isometric and surjective by definition. On the other hand, assume it is isometric and surjective. We first show that T preserves the inner product: If the scalar field is C, by the polarization identity, 1 hT x; T yi = (kT x + T yk2 − kT x − T yk2 + ikT x + iT yk2 − ikT x − iT yk2) 4 1 = (kx + yk2 − kx − yk2 + ikx + iyk2 − ikx − iyk2) = hx; yi; 4 where in the second equation we used the linearity of T and the assumption that T is isometric. 1 If the scalar field is R, then we use the real version of the polarization identity: 1 hx; yi = (kx + yk2 − kx − yk2) 4 The remaining computation is similar to the complex case. It remains to show that T is injective. But T x = 0 () hT x; T xi = 0 () hx; xi = 0 () x = 0: Hence T is injective. 2. If E is a subset of a Hilbert space H, then (E?)? is the smallest closed subspace of H containing E. Proof. For each subset A of H, A? is always a subspace by definition. Also, it is ? closed, since if yn ! y in H where hyn; xi = 0, then hy; xi = 0. With A = E , we have (E?)? is a closed subspace. Moreover, it contains E by definition. It remains to show minimality. let K be any closed subspace containing E, and we would like to show (E?)? ⊆ K. Suppose not. Then there is x 2 (E?)? with x2 = K. Since K is a proper closed subspace, by Question 4 of the last homework, there is l 2 H∗ such that l(x) = 1 and l ≡ 0 on K. By the Riesz-Fr´echet theorem, there is y 2 H with l(x) = hx; yi = 1 6= 0. Since x 2 (E?)?, we have y2 = E?. That means hz; yi= 6 0 for some z 2 E. But this is a contradiction since l(z) = hz; yi and l ≡ 0 on E. Therefore (E?)? ⊆ K. 3. Suppose H is a Hilbert space and T 2 L(H; H). (a) There is a unique T ∗ 2 L(H; H), called the adjoint of T , such that hT x; yi = hx; T ∗yi for all x; y 2 H. Proof. We first prove the existence. Fix y 2 H. Define the mapping ly(x) := hT x; yi, which lies in H∗. By the Riesz-Fr´echet theorem, there is a unique ∗ z 2 H with ly(x) = hx; zi for all x 2 H, with klyk = kzk. We define T y := z by the above relations. The uniqueness of z ensures that the mapping is well defined, and satisfies hT x; yi = hx; T ∗yi by construction. One can check that T ∗ is linear and has operator norm 1. This shows the existence. To establish the uniqueness, it suffices to prove the following assertion: if T is a linear operator on a Hilbert space H and hx; T yi = 0 for all x; y 2 H, then T ≡ 0. Indeed, fix y 2 H, and taking x = T y. Then we have hT y; T yi = 0, whence T y = 0. Hence T ≡ 0, so uniqueness is proved. (b) kT ∗k = kT k, kT ∗T k = kT k2,(aS + bT )∗ = aS∗ + bT ∗,(ST )∗ = T ∗S∗, and T ∗∗ = T . 2 Proof. • We first show T ∗∗ = T . Indeed, hT ∗∗x; yi = hy; T ∗∗xi = hT ∗y; xi = hx; T ∗yi = hT x; yi: Since the above holds for all x; y 2 H, T ∗∗ = T . • We then show kT ∗k = kT k. { We first show kT ∗k ≤ kT k < 1. Let x 2 H. If T ∗x = 0, then we have nothing to prove. Otherwise, by the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, kT ∗xk2 = hT ∗x; T ∗xi = hx; T T ∗xi ≤ kxkkTT ∗xk ≤ kxkkT kkT ∗xk: Thus we have kT ∗xk ≤ kT kkxk. This shows that kT ∗k ≤ kT k. { Since T ∗∗ = T , we have kT k = kT ∗∗k ≤ kT ∗k by the previous direction. Hence kT ∗k = kT k. • We show kT ∗T k = kT k2. { On the one hand, kT ∗T xk ≤ kT ∗kkT kkxk = kT k2kxk; where we have used kT ∗k = kT k in the last equality. Thus kT ∗T k ≤ kT k2 < 1. { On the other hand, kT xk2 = hT x; T xi = hx; T ∗T xi ≤ kxkkT ∗T xk ≤ kxkkT ∗T kkxk: 1 1 2 Hence kT xk ≤ kT ∗T k 2 kxk, so kT k ≤ kT ∗T k 2 . Hence kT k ≤ kT ∗T k. • The other two equalities are direct. (c) Let R and N denote the range and nullspace; then R(T )? = N (T ∗) and N (T )? = R(T ∗). Proof. •R (T )? = N (T ∗): { R(T )? ⊆ N (T ∗): let x 2 R(T )?. Then hT ∗x; yi = hx; T yi = 0 for all y 2 H. Taking y = T ∗x shows that T ∗x = 0, that is, x 2 N (T ∗). { R(T )? ⊇ N (T ∗): let x 2 N (T ∗). Then T ∗x = 0. For any y 2 H, hx; T yi = hT ∗x; yi = 0, which shows that x 2 R(T )?: • Applying the first part of the question to T ∗, we have R(T ∗)? = N (T ∗∗) = N (T ), so (R(T ∗)?)? = N (T )?. But by Question 2 in this homework, (R(T ∗)?)? is the smallest closed subspace of H containing R(T ∗). Since R(T ∗) is already a subspace of H, the smallest closed subspace of H con- taining R(T ∗) is R(T ∗). Hence N (T )? = R(T ∗). (d) T is unitary if and only if T is invertible and T −1 = T ∗. 3 Proof. As in Question 1 (b), we take the definition that an operator is unitary if and only if it is invertible and hT x; T yi = hx; yi for all x; y 2 H. If T is unitary, then T is invertible by definition. To show that T −1 = T ∗, we note that hT x; yi = hT x; T T −1yi = hx; T −1yi; for all x; y 2 H, since T is unitary. This is to say that T −1 is an adjoint of T . By uniqueness of the adjoint operator, we have T −1 = T ∗. On the other hand, suppose T is invertible and T −1 = T ∗. To show T is unitary, it suffices to show it preserves the inner product. But we easily compute hT x; T yi = hx; T ∗T yi = hx; T −1T yi = hx; yi; for all x; y 2 H. hence T is unitary. 4. Let M be a closed subspace of the Hilbert space H, and for x 2 H let P x be the element of M such that x − P x 2 M? as in Theorem 5.24. (a) P 2 L(H; H), P ∗ = P , P 2 = P , R(P ) = M, and N (P ) = M?. P is called the orthogonal projection onto M. Proof. i. P is linear: Theorem 5.24 states that each x 2 H can be uniquely decomposed into x = y + z, where P x := y 2 M and z 2 M?. Using this and the fact that M, M? are subspaces, we can prove linearity. P is bounded: Theorem 5.24 also states that P x is perpendicular to x−P x. By the Pythagorean Theorem, kP xk2 = kxk2 − kx − P xk2 ≤ kxk2; which shows that kP k ≤ 1. Hence P 2 L(H; H). ii. By uniqueness of the adjoint operator, it suffices to show that for all x; x0 2 H, we have hP x; x0i = hx; P x0i: Decompose x = y + z, x0 = y0 + z0 as in Theorem 5.24. This can be proved using the fact that y; y0 2 M and z; z0 2 M?. iii. Note that for each y 2 M, the orthogonal decomposition in Theorem 5.24 is y = y + 0, so P y = y. (This implies that kP k = 1 unless M = f0g). Applying this to y = P x 2 M, we have P 2x = P (P x) = P x for all x 2 H. iv. We have R(P ) ⊆ M by definition. On the other hand, given any x 2 M, P x = x implies that x 2 R(P ). v. Since P = P ∗, N (P ) = N (P ∗). By Question 3(c), N (P ∗) = R(P )?. But R(P ) = M, so R(P )? = M?. Hence N (P ) = M?. (b) Conversely, suppose that P 2 L(H; H) satisfies P 2 = P ∗ = P . Then R(P ) is closed and P is the orthogonal projection onto R(P ). 4 Proof. By Theorem 5.24, it suffices to show that M := R(P ) is closed, and then show that P x = x for all x 2 M and P x = 0 for all x 2 M?.

  • FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS 1. Banach and Hilbert Spaces in What
    FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS PIOTR HAJLASZ 1. Banach and Hilbert spaces In what follows K will denote R of C. Definition. A normed space is a pair (X, k · k), where X is a linear space over K and k · k : X → [0, ∞) is a function, called a norm, such that (1) kx + yk ≤ kxk + kyk for all x, y ∈ X; (2) kαxk = |α|kxk for all x ∈ X and α ∈ K; (3) kxk = 0 if and only if x = 0. Since kx − yk ≤ kx − zk + kz − yk for all x, y, z ∈ X, d(x, y) = kx − yk defines a metric in a normed space. In what follows normed paces will always be regarded as metric spaces with respect to the metric d. A normed space is called a Banach space if it is complete with respect to the metric d. Definition. Let X be a linear space over K (=R or C). The inner product (scalar product) is a function h·, ·i : X × X → K such that (1) hx, xi ≥ 0; (2) hx, xi = 0 if and only if x = 0; (3) hαx, yi = αhx, yi; (4) hx1 + x2, yi = hx1, yi + hx2, yi; (5) hx, yi = hy, xi, for all x, x1, x2, y ∈ X and all α ∈ K.

  • 3. Hilbert Spaces
    3. Hilbert spaces In this section we examine a special type of Banach spaces. We start with some algebraic preliminaries. Definition. Let K be either R or C, and let Let X and Y be vector spaces over K. A map φ : X × Y → K is said to be K-sesquilinear, if • for every x ∈ X, then map φx : Y 3 y 7−→ φ(x, y) ∈ K is linear; • for every y ∈ Y, then map φy : X 3 y 7−→ φ(x, y) ∈ K is conjugate linear, i.e. the map X 3 x 7−→ φy(x) ∈ K is linear. In the case K = R the above properties are equivalent to the fact that φ is bilinear. Remark 3.1. Let X be a vector space over C, and let φ : X × X → C be a C-sesquilinear map. Then φ is completely determined by the map Qφ : X 3 x 7−→ φ(x, x) ∈ C. This can be see by computing, for k ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3} the quantity k k k k k k k Qφ(x + i y) = φ(x + i y, x + i y) = φ(x, x) + φ(x, i y) + φ(i y, x) + φ(i y, i y) = = φ(x, x) + ikφ(x, y) + i−kφ(y, x) + φ(y, y), which then gives 3 1 X (1) φ(x, y) = i−kQ (x + iky), ∀ x, y ∈ X. 4 φ k=0 The map Qφ : X → C is called the quadratic form determined by φ.

  • CHAPTER 9 Inner Product Spaces and Hilbert Spaces Prof. M. Saha
    CHAPTER 9 Inner Product Spaces and Hilbert Spaces BY Prof. M. Saha Professor of Mathematics The University of Burdwan West Bengal, India E-mail : [email protected] Chapter 9 Inner Product Spaces and Hilbert Spaces Introduction and Objectives In the preceding chapters, we discussed normed linear spaces and Banach spaces. These spaces has linear properties as well as metric properties. Although the norm on a linear space generalizes the elementary concept of the length of a vector, but the main geometric concept other than the length of a vector is the angle between two vectors, In this chapter, we take the opportunity to study linear spaces having an inner product, a generalization of the usual dot product on finite dimensional linear spaces. The concept of an inner product in a linear space leads to an inner product space and a complete inner product space which is called a Hilbert space. The theory of Hilbert Spaces does not deal with angles in general. Most interestingly, it helps us to introduce an idea of perpendicularity for two vectors and the geometry deals in various fundamental aspects with Euclidean geometry. The basics of the theory of Hilbert spaces was given by in 1912 by the work of German mathematician D. Hilbert (1862 -1943) on integral equations. However, an axiomatic basis of the theory was given by famous mathematician J. Von Neumann (1903 -1957). However, Hilbert spaces are the simplest type of infinite dimensional Banach spaces to tackle a remarkable role in functional analysis. This chapter is divided into four modules. Module 1 ideals with the introduction of inner product spaces and Hilbert spaces with some examples.

China ABSTRACT In this paper, some generalizations of the classical polarization formula are used to recover the relative phase in phase retrieval problem. Theoretically, in order to reconstruct any signal from its intensity measurements by polarization formula, the amount of needed measurements can be same as PhaseLift method. The numerical simulation also illustrates its good effect in (affine) phase retrieval with additive white Gaussian noised intensity Fourier measurements. Keywords: Polarization formula; Phase retrieval; Frame 2010 MS Classification 42C15 INTRODUCTION In this paper, the frame theory is used to obtain some polarization identities. At first, we briefly introduce some definitions and The aim of phase retrieval is to recover signal x from its intensity N notations. Let H denotes a separable Hilbert space with the inner measurements x,ϕi , i =1,..., N , where {ϕi}i=1 forms a d product 〈⋅ , ⋅〉 and J be a countable index set. frame of C . Since |< x,ϕi >|=|< αx,ϕi >| for any α ∈C Definition 1.1. A sequence { f j} j∈J of elements in H is a frame for H with|α |=1, the best reconstruction of x is up to a unimodular if there exists constants A, B > 0 such that constant.

  • Hilbert Spaces
    Hilbert Spaces Definition. A complex inner product space (or pre-Hilbert space) is a complex vector space X together with an inner product: a function from X × X into C (denoted by hy, xi) satisfying: (1) (∀ x ∈ X) hx, xi ≥ 0 and hx, xi =0 iff x = 0. (2) (∀ α, β ∈ C) (∀ x, y, z ∈ X), hz,αx + βyi = αhz, xi + βhz,yi. (3) (∀ x, y ∈ X) hy, xi = hx, yi Remarks. (2) says the inner product is linear in the second variable; (3) says the inner product is sesquilinear; (2) and (3) imply hαx + βy,zi =α ¯hx, zi + β¯hy, zi, so the inner product is conjugate linear in the first variable. Definition. For x ∈ X, let kxk = hx, xi. p Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality. (∀ x, y ∈ X) |hy, xi| ≤ kxk·kyk, with equality iff x and y are linearly dependent. Proof. The result is obvious if hy, xi = 0. Suppose γ ≡ hy, xi= 6 0. Then x =6 0, y =6 0. Let z = γ|γ|−1y. Then hz, xi =γ ¯|γ|−1hy, xi = |γ| > 0. Let v = xkxk−1, w = zkzk−1. Then kvk = kwk = 1 and hw, vi > 0. Since 0 ≤kv − wk2 = hv, vi − 2Rehw, vi + hw,wi, it follows that hw, vi ≤ 1 (with equality iff v = w, which happens iff x and y are linearly dependent). So |hy, xi| = hz, xi = kxk·kzkhw, vi≤kxk·kzk = kxk·kyk. Facts. (1′) (∀ x ∈ X)kxk ≥ 0; kxk =0 iff x = 0. (2′) (∀ α ∈ C)(∀ x ∈ X) kαxk = |α|·kxk. (3′) (∀ x, y ∈ X) kx + yk≤kxk + kyk.

  • 3. Hilbert Spaces
    14 RODICA D. COSTIN 3. Hilbert Spaces In a Hilbert space we can do linear algebra (since it is a vector space), ge- ometry (since we have lengths and angles) and calculus (since it is complete). And they are all combined when we write series expansions. Recall: Definition 23. A Hilbert space H is a real or complex inner product space that is also a complete metric space with respect to the distance function induced by the inner product. Recall the two fundamental examples: the space of sequences 2, and the space of square integrable function L2. 3.1. When does a norm come from an inner product? In every Hilbert space the parallelogram identity holds: for any f,g H ∈ (6) f + g 2 + f g 2 = 2( f 2 + g 2) − (in a parallelogram the sum of the squares of the sides equals the sum of the squares of the diagonals). Relation (6) is proved by a direct calculation (expanding the norms in terms of the inner products and collecting the terms). The remarkable fact is that, if the parallelogram identity holds in a Banach space, then its norm actually comes from an inner product, and can recover the inner product only in terms of the norm by the polarization identity: for complex spaces 1 f,g = f + g 2 f g 2 + i f + ig 2 i f ig 2 4 − − − − and for real spaces 1 f,g = f + g 2 f g 2 4 − − 3.2. The inner product is continuous. This means that we can take limits inside the inner product: Theorem 24.
