Index set for a finite-dimensional Hilbert space H\mathcal{H}

Given a finite-dimensional complex Hilbert space H\mathcal{H}, the indexing set HSIndex(H)\text{HSIndex}(\mathcal{H}) is defined as the set of natural numbers {0,1,,n1}\{0, 1, \dots, n-1\}, where n=dimCHn = \dim_{\mathbb{C}} \mathcal{H} is the complex dimension of H\mathcal{H}. This set serves as the canonical indexing set for Hilbert-Schmidt coordinates.

Coordinate space for Hilbert-Schmidt operators on H\mathcal{H}

Given a finite-dimensional complex Hilbert space H\mathcal{H}, the Hilbert-Schmidt coordinate space is defined as the Euclidean space CHSIndex(H)×HSIndex(H)\mathbb{C}^{\text{HSIndex}(\mathcal{H}) \times \text{HSIndex}(\mathcal{H})}. Here, HSIndex(H)\text{HSIndex}(\mathcal{H}) is the canonical indexing set {0,1,,n1}\{0, 1, \dots, n-1\} where n=dimCHn = \dim_{\mathbb{C}} \mathcal{H}. This space consists of complex-valued functions on the product of the index set with itself, effectively representing Hilbert-Schmidt operators on H\mathcal{H} as n×nn \times n matrices equipped with the L2L^2 (Frobenius) norm.

This definition provides a C\mathbb{C}-linear equivalence between the Hilbert-Schmidt coordinate space HSCoords(H)\text{HSCoords}(\mathcal{H}) (the space of complex-valued functions on HSIndex(H)×HSIndex(H)\text{HSIndex}(\mathcal{H}) \times \text{HSIndex}(\mathcal{H}) equipped with the L2L^2 norm) and the Hilbert-Schmidt coordinate function space HSCoordFun(H)\text{HSCoordFun}(\mathcal{H}) (the underlying space of complex-valued functions on the same index set).

This equivalence maps an operator THSOp(H)T \in HSOp(\mathcal{H}) to its matrix representation relative to the standard orthonormal basis {ei}iI\{e_i\}_{i \in I} of H\mathcal{H}. Specifically, for an operator TT, its coordinate at index (i,j)(i, j) corresponds to the matrix entry MijM_{ij} of the linear map underlying TT with respect to the basis.

Inner product on HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H})

Given a finite-dimensional complex Hilbert space H\mathcal{H}, this definition equips the space of Hilbert-Schmidt operators HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}) with an inner product. For any two operators T,SHSOp(H)T, S \in HSOp(\mathcal{H}), their inner product T,S\langle T, S \rangle is defined as the standard complex inner product of their matrix representations in the coordinate space HSCoords(H)Cn×n\text{HSCoords}(\mathcal{H}) \cong \mathbb{C}^{n \times n} (where n=dimCHn = \dim_{\mathbb{C}} \mathcal{H}). Effectively, if MM and NN are the matrices associated with TT and SS with respect to the canonical orthonormal basis, the inner product is the Frobenius inner product M,NFrob=i,jMijNij\langle M, N \rangle_{\text{Frob}} = \sum_{i,j} \overline{M_{ij}} N_{ij}.

This means the map is a bijective linear transformation that preserves the Hilbert-Schmidt inner product, such that for any T,SHSOp(H)T, S \in HSOp(\mathcal{H}), T,S=coords(T),coords(S)\langle T, S \rangle = \langle \text{coords}(T), \text{coords}(S) \rangle, where the right-hand side is the standard Frobenius inner product on matrices.

For a complex inner product space H\mathcal{H} and a bounded linear operator AB(H)A \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}), this definition defines a continuous linear map from the Hilbert-Schmidt operator space HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}) to itself. The map takes a Hilbert-Schmidt operator TT and returns the operator ATA T (the composition of AA and TT), reinterpreted as an element of HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}).

definition

rightMulHSStarAlgHom(A)=RAunop\text{rightMulHSStarAlgHom}(A) = R_{A^{\text{unop}}}

Let H\mathcal{H} be a complex inner product space, and let HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}) denote the space of Hilbert-Schmidt operators on H\mathcal{H}. For any element AA in the opposite algebra of bounded linear operators B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^{\text{op}}, the \star-algebra homomorphism rightMulHSStarAlgHom\text{rightMulHSStarAlgHom} maps AA to the right multiplication operator RAunopR_{A^{\text{unop}}}. Specifically, rightMulHSStarAlgHom(A)\text{rightMulHSStarAlgHom}(A) is the continuous linear map on HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}) defined by TTAunopT \mapsto T A^{\text{unop}}, where AunopA^{\text{unop}} is the operator in B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) corresponding to AA.

definition

\star-algebra homomorphism A(A)opA \mapsto (A^*)^\text{op} from B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) to B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^\text{op}

Let B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) denote the algebra of bounded linear operators on a complex inner product space H\mathcal{H}, and let B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^\text{op} be its opposite algebra. This definition is the R\mathbb{R}-\star-algebra homomorphism from B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) to B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^\text{op} that maps an operator AA to (A)op(A^*)^\text{op}, where AA^* is the adjoint of AA. For any self-adjoint operator AA, the map simply sends AA to its corresponding element AopA^\text{op} in the opposite algebra.

theorem

If AA is self-adjoint, then AopA^{op} is self-adjoint

Let H\mathcal{H} be a complex inner product space and let B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) denote the space of bounded linear operators on H\mathcal{H}. For any operator AB(H)A \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}), if AA is self-adjoint, then its corresponding element AopA^{op} in the opposite algebra B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^{op} is also self-adjoint.

theorem

σ(Aop)=σ(A)\sigma(A^{\text{op}}) = \sigma(A) for self-adjoint AB(H)A \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})

Let H\mathcal{H} be a complex Hilbert space and B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) be the algebra of bounded linear operators on H\mathcal{H}. Suppose B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) is nontrivial and admits a continuous functional calculus for self-adjoint operators. For any self-adjoint operator AB(H)A \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}), let AopA^{\text{op}} denote its representation in the opposite algebra B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^{\text{op}}. Then the spectrum of AopA^{\text{op}} is equal to the spectrum of AA, that is, σ(Aop)=σ(A).\sigma(A^{\text{op}}) = \sigma(A).

theorem

f(Aop)=(f(A))opf(A^{\text{op}}) = (f(A))^{\text{op}} for self-adjoint AB(H)A \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})

Let H\mathcal{H} be a complex Hilbert space and B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) be the algebra of bounded linear operators on H\mathcal{H}. Suppose that B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) is nontrivial and that both B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) and its opposite algebra B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^{\text{op}} admit a continuous functional calculus for self-adjoint operators. For any self-adjoint operator AB(H)A \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) and any real-valued function f:RRf: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} that is continuous on the spectrum σ(A)\sigma(A), the functional calculus applied to AA in the opposite algebra satisfies: f(Aop)=(f(A))op,f(A^{\text{op}}) = (f(A))^{\text{op}}, where AopA^{\text{op}} denotes the element AA viewed as an element of B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^{\text{op}}.

theorem

Lf(A)=f(LA)L_{f(A)} = f(L_A) for Hilbert-Schmidt operators

Let H\mathcal{H} be a complex Hilbert space and HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}) be the space of Hilbert-Schmidt operators on H\mathcal{H}. For any self-adjoint bounded linear operator AB(H)A \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) and any real-valued function f:RRf: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} that is continuous on the spectrum σ(A)\sigma(A), let LA:HSOp(H)HSOp(H)L_A: HSOp(\mathcal{H}) \to HSOp(\mathcal{H}) denote the left multiplication operator defined by LA(T)=ATL_A(T) = AT. Then the continuous functional calculus satisfies: Lf(A)=f(LA),L_{f(A)} = f(L_A), where f(A)f(A) is the functional calculus of AA in B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}), and f(LA)f(L_A) is the functional calculus of the operator LAL_A acting on the Hilbert space HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}).

theorem

Rf(A)=f(RA)R_{f(A)} = f(R_A) for right multiplication on HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H})

Let H\mathcal{H} be a complex Hilbert space and B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) be the algebra of bounded linear operators on H\mathcal{H}. Let HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}) be the space of Hilbert-Schmidt operators on H\mathcal{H}. For any BB(H)B \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}), let RB:HSOp(H)HSOp(H)R_B: HSOp(\mathcal{H}) \to HSOp(\mathcal{H}) be the continuous linear map defined by right multiplication, RB(T)=TBR_B(T) = TB. Suppose that B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) is nontrivial and that both B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) and its opposite algebra B(H)op\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})^{\text{op}} admit a continuous functional calculus for self-adjoint operators. For any self-adjoint operator AB(H)A \in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}) and any real-valued function f:RRf: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R} continuous on the spectrum σ(A)\sigma(A), it holds that: Rf(A)=f(RA),R_{f(A)} = f(R_A), where f(A)f(A) is the functional calculus of AA in B(H)\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H}), and f(RA)f(R_A) is the functional calculus of the operator RAR_A acting on the Hilbert space HSOp(H)HSOp(\mathcal{H}).
