Exercise 6.4.10

Answers

Directly calculate that

T(x) ± ix2 = T(x) ± ix,T(x) ± ix = T(x)2 ±T(x),ix ±ix,T(x) + x2 = T(x)2 i T(x),x ±T(x),x + x2 = T(x)2 + x2.

Also, T ± iI is injective since T(x) ± x = 0 if and only if T(x) = 0 and x = 0. Now T iI is invertible by the fact that V is finite-dimensional. Finally we may calculate that

x,[(T iI)1](T + iI)(y) = (T iI)1(x),(T + iI)(y) = (T iI)1(x),(T + iI)(y) = (T iI)1(x),(T iI)(y) = (T iI)(T iI)1(x),y = x,y

for all x and y. So we get the desired equality.
