We know that for every symmetry transformation, we can define a linear, unitary operator (or antiunitary, anti linear operator) that takes a physical state into another state. My question is if there exists unitary operators that act in this way that do not correspond to any symmetry? Would a parity transformation acting on a physical state that does not conserve it be an example of this?
