The aim of this paper is to find (cf. Theorems 4.2; 4.3) a canonical form, and a complete set of invariants, for self-adjoint transformations in a Hilbert space-up to unitary equivalence. While the basic mode of approach is essentially the same as in the excellent exposition in Halmos [1], the final result will be seen to be very much simpler. We do not have to work with the fairly involved concepts of rows, columns, etc.

Abstract


The aim of this paper is to find (cf. Theorems 4.2; 4.3) a canonical form, and a complete set of invariants, for self-adjoint transformations in a Hilbert space-up to unitary equivalence. While the basic mode of approach is essentially the same as in the excellent exposition in Halmos [1], the final result will be seen to be very much simpler. We do not have to work with the fairly involved concepts of rows, columns, etc.
