SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on the differences between the one norm and infinity norm of a complex vector \( x \) and its conjugate transpose \( x^* \). It is established that while the 2-norm remains invariant under conjugation, the one and infinity norms do not share this property for complex vectors. The infinity norm of \( x^* \) is defined as \( \max |x_j^*| \) for \( 1 \leq j \leq n \). The norms are equal for real vectors, as demonstrated by the relationship \( |z^*| = |z| \) for complex numbers.
