independent of coordinates (-i.e. there is a geometric description).)

Assumption
Throughout we will assume that X is an n-dimensional real inner-product
space.
Definition
The norm of x ∈ X is ||x|| = (x, x)1/2 , and the distance between
x, y ∈ X is ||x − y ||.
Theorem (Cauchy-Schwartz)
For all x, y ∈ X , |(x, y )| ≤ ||x|| · ||y ||.
Corollary
(x,y )
For any x, y ∈ X , −1 ≤ ||x||·||y || ≤ 1.
Theorem
||x|| = max{(x, y ) | ||y || = 1}.
Definition
A subset {x1 , · · · , xn } ⊆ X is orthogonal if whenever i 6= j we have
(xi , xj ) = 0.
An orthogonal set is called an orthonormal set if each vector has length 1.
Fact
Any orthogonal set is linearly independent.

If two linear functions have the same value for all vectors that form a
basis, they have the same values for all vectors x.
Remark
This is consistent with our previous definition of
Theorem
For any subspace Y of X , we have X = Y ⊕ Y ⊥ .
Definition
The map PY : X → X , x = y + y ⊥ 7→ y , is called the
orthogonal projection of x into Y .
Theorem
Let Y ⊂ X be a subspace. Then,
Proof.
Suppose that x ∈ X .
Write x = y + y ⊥ (-i.e. y = PY (x) ).
Then for any w ∈ Y , we have x − w = (y − w ) + y ⊥ .
Applying the Pythagorean theorem, we have
Note
If A ∈ Rm×n , and X = Rn , Y = Rm , and we identify X 0 and Y 0 with
R1×n and R1×m respectively, we have A∗ =T A.
Proof.
Let x ∈ X , u ∈ U, v ∈ V .
1 ((A + B)x, u) = (Ax, u) + (Bx, u) = (x, A∗ u) + (x, B ∗ u)
= (x, (A∗ + B ∗ )u).
2 (CAx, v ) = (Ax, C ∗ v ) = (x, A∗ C ∗ v ).
3 I = I ∗ = (A−1 A)∗ = A∗ (A∗ )−1 .
4 (Ax, u) = (u, Ax) = (A∗ u, x) = (u, (A∗ )∗ x) = ((A∗ )∗ x, u).
Remark
In such a situation, we seek that vector x that comes closest to satisfying
all the equations in the sense that makes ||Ax − p||2 as small as possible.
This is called a least square problem.
A∗ Az = A∗ p.
Proof.
Take p̂ = PRA (p).
Then ∃z such that Az = p̂ and z minimizes ||Ax − p||.
Also (p − p̂) ⊥ RA .
Thus ∀x ∈ X , we have 0 = ((p − p̂), Ax) = (A∗ (p − Az), x).
Thus A∗ p − A∗ Az = 0.
This proves that the solution z to A∗ Az = A∗ p minimizes ||Ax − p|| as
desired.
Suppose that z 0 is another solution to the above equation.
Then, taking y = z − z 0 we have that A∗ Ay = 0
Thus 0 = (A∗ Ay , y ) = (Ay , Ay ) = ||y ||2 .
Thus z − z 0 = y = 0.
PY∗ = PY .
Proof.
For all w , y ∈ Y , we have
Definition
A function M : X → X is an isometry if for all x, y ∈ X ,
||Mx − My || = ||x − y ||. (“Distance-preserving.”)
Example
Any translation Mx = x + a is an isometry.
Definition
A matrix that maps Rn onto itself isometrically is called orthogonal.
The orthogonal matrices (for fixed n) form a group under matrix
multiplication called the orthogonal group denoted O(n).
The subgroup of matrices with determinant 1 is called the
special orthogonal group, denoted SO(n).
Definition
We define the norm of a map A : X → U as ||A|| = sup||x||=1 ||Ax||.
Theorem
Let A : X → U be a mapping of Euclidean spaces. Then,
1 ||Az|| ≤ ||A||||z|| for all z ∈ X .
2 ||A|| = sup||x||=1;||v ||=1 (Ax, v ).
Theorem
Let A : X → X be an invertible linear map of Euclidean space into itself.
Suppose B : X → X has the property that ||A − B|| < ||A1−1 || . Then B is
invertible.
Note
We have assumed throughout the proof that dim(X ) < ∞. However, the
result also holds when dim(X ) = ∞.
Definition
A sequence of vectors {xk } in a Euclidean space X is called a
Cauchy sequence if ||xk − xj || → 0 as k, j → ∞.
A sequence {xk } of vectors in a Euclidean space X is called bounded if
||xk || ≤ R for all k where R is some real number.
Theorem
Let X be a finite dimensional Euclidean space.
1 X is complete (-i.e. all Cauchy sequences converge in X ).
2 X is locally compact (-i.e. every bounded sequence contains a
convergent subsequence).
Theorem
If a Euclidean space X is locally compact then dim X < ∞.
Proposition
If dim X < ∞, then An → A iff An x → Ax for all x ∈ X .
Remark
This is not true if dim X = ∞.
Proposition
1 Linear in x (-i.e. (kx, y ) = k(x, y )).
2 Skew linear in y (-i.e. (x, ky ) = k̄(x, y )).
3 Skew symmetric: (x, y ) = (y , x).
4 (x, x) > 0 for all x 6= 0. (positivity)
5 ||x + y ||2 = ||x||2 + 2Re((x, y )) + ||y ||2 .
Definition
The adjoint of a linear map A : X → U is defined to be the map
A∗ : U → X such that (x, A∗ u) = (Ax, u), ∀x ∈ X ; u ∈ U.
Proposition
If M : X → X is unitary, then
1 M ∗M = I ,
2 M −1 is unitary,
3 The set of untiary maps of X forms a group,
4 | det(M)| = 1.
Definition
The norm of a linear map between complex spaces is defined as in the
real case: ||A|| = sup||x||=1 ||Ax||.
