Homework Statement
unitary operators on hilbert space
Homework Equations
is there a unitary operator on a (finite or infinite) Hilbert space so that cU(x)=y, for some
constant (real or complex), where x and y are fixed non-zero elements in H ?
The Attempt at a Solution
I know the answer in R^2, it is enough to consider U a suitable rotation so that U(x)
be a point on the straight line Ry={ry; r ε R}, and then there is a scaler r in R so that
rU(x)=y. I guess this is true for R^n too.
