Homework Statement



Let L(l^2,l^2) be the space of bounded linear operators K:l^2->l^2.

Now I define a map from l^infinite to L(l^2,l^2) as a->Ta(ei) to be Ta(ei)=aiei where ei is the orthonormal basic of l^2 and a=(a1,a2,...) is in l^infinte

I want to prove this map is bijection
can anyone give me some helps??

2. The attempt at a solution
I finished the part of injective but I don.t know how to show it is surjective. I tried to construct a sequence fn s.t. T(fn)=f where f(en)=fn then to show fn is indeed in l^infinite. But I failed to find such sequence

I would try to find a counterexample.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
