What is the difference between isometric and unitary operators on a ...
A stronger notion is unitary equivalence, i.e., similarity induced by a unitary transformation (since these are the isometric isomorphisms of Hilbert space), which again cannot happen between a nonunitary …

linear algebra - What's the interpretation of a unitary matrix ...
Unitary matrices are the complex versions, and they are the matrix representations of linear maps on complex vector spaces that preserve "complex distances". If you have a complex vector space then …
linear algebra - Norm preservation properties of a unitary matrix ...
Definition (Unitary matrix). A unitary matrix is a square matrix $\mathbf {U} \in \mathbb {K}^ {n \times n}$ such that \begin {equation} \mathbf {U}^* \mathbf {U} = \mathbf {I} = \mathbf {U} \mathbf {U}^*. \end …
If H is Hermitian, show that $e^ {iH}$ is unitary
In the case where H is acting on a finite dimensional vector space, you can essentially view it as a matrix, in which case (by for example the BCH formula) the relation you state in a) is valid. More …
linear algebra - Singular value decomposition for unitary matrices ...
Jan 13, 2021 · I know the title is strange, but there are many instances in quantum information in which one is interested not in diagonalizing a unitary matrix, but instead in finding its singular value …
Given a unitary matrix $U$, how do I find $A$ such that $U=e^{iA}$?
Jan 1, 2015 · I believe the way you propose is quite standard. For a more general understanding of exponentiation, maybe look for an introductory course on Lie groups and Lie algebras, but for simple …
linear algebra - Matrices which are both unitary and Hermitian ...
are both unitary and Hermitian (for $0 \le \theta \le 2\pi$). I call the latter type trivial, since its columns equal to plus/minus columns of the identity matrix. Do such matrices have any significance (in theory …
