Self-adjoint, skew-adjoint and normal elements of a star additive group #
This file defines selfAdjoint R
(resp. skewAdjoint R
), where R
is a star additive group,
as the additive subgroup containing the elements that satisfy star x = x
(resp. star x = -x
).
This includes, for instance, (skew-)Hermitian operators on Hilbert spaces.
We also define IsStarNormal R
, a Prop
that states that an element x
satisfies
star x * x = x * star x
.
Implementation notes #
- When
R
is aStarModule R₂ R
, thenselfAdjoint R
has a naturalModule (selfAdjoint R₂) (selfAdjoint R)
structure. However, doing this literally would be undesirable since in the main case of interest (R₂ = ℂ
) we wantModule ℝ (selfAdjoint R)
and notModule (selfAdjoint ℂ) (selfAdjoint R)
. We solve this issue by adding the typeclass[TrivialStar R₃]
, of whichℝ
is an instance (registered inData/Real/Basic
), and then add a[Module R₃ (selfAdjoint R)]
instance whenever we have[Module R₃ R] [TrivialStar R₃]
. (Another approach would have been to define[StarInvariantScalars R₃ R]
to express the fact thatstar (x • v) = x • star v
, but this typeclass would have the disadvantage of taking two type arguments.)
TODO #
- Define
IsSkewAdjoint
to matchIsSelfAdjoint
. - Define
fun z x => z * x * star z
(i.e. conjugation byz
) as a monoid action ofR
onR
(similar to the existingConjAct
for groups), and then state the fact thatselfAdjoint R
is invariant under it.
An element is self-adjoint if it is equal to its star.
Equations
- IsSelfAdjoint x = (star x = x)
Instances For
All elements are self-adjoint when star
is trivial.
Self-adjoint elements commute if and only if their product is self-adjoint.
Functions in a StarHomClass
preserve self-adjoint elements.
