Name: UIN: Problem Set 7 Math 423, Section 200, Spring 2015 Due: Friday, March 27. Review Sections 7A and 7B in your textbook. Complete the following items, staple this page to the front of your work, and turn your assignment in at the beginning of class on Friday, March 27. One of the problems is considered extra credit. Remember to fully justify all your answers, and provide complete details. Neatness is greatly appreciated. For Problems 1-6, determine whether the given operator T ∈ L (V) is normal, self-adjoint, or neither. If possible, produce an orthonormal basis of V consisting of eigenvectors of T , and list the corresponding eigenvalues. 1. T ∈ L (R2 ) given by T (a, b) = (2a − 2b, −2a + 5b), where R2 has the standard Euclidean inner product. 2. T ∈ L (R3 ) given by T (a, b, c) = (−a+b, 5b, 4a−2b+5c), where R3 has the standard Euclidean inner product. 3. T ∈ L (C2 ) given by T (a, b) = (2a + ib, a + 2b), where C2 has the standard Euclidean inner product. 4. T ∈ P2 (R) given by T f = f 0 , where the inner product on P2 (R) is: Z 1 h f, gi = f (x)g(x) dx. 0 5. T ∈ L (M2×2 (R)), where M2×2 (R) is the vector space of 2 × 2 matrices with real coefficients, given by T (A) = At . Here the inner product is *" # " #+ a b x y , = ax + by + cz + dw. c d z w 6.
