linear algebra - What's the interpretation of a unitary matrix ...
Unitary matrices are the complex versions, and they are the matrix representations of linear maps on complex vector spaces that preserve "complex distances". If you have a complex vector space then …
What is the difference between isometric and unitary operators on a ...
A stronger notion is unitary equivalence, i.e., similarity induced by a unitary transformation (since these are the isometric isomorphisms of Hilbert space), which again cannot happen between a nonunitary …
Prove that the tensor product of unitary matrices is also unitary
Dec 6, 2020 · Show that if $A$ and $B$ are unitary matrices, then $C = A \\otimes B$ is unitary.

linear algebra - Singular value decomposition for unitary matrices ...
Jan 13, 2021 · I know the title is strange, but there are many instances in quantum information in which one is interested not in diagonalizing a unitary matrix, but instead in finding its singular value …
Properties shared by similar and unitary similar matrices.
Apr 13, 2015 · You wrote that similarity does not preserve symmetry (or rather conjugate symmetry in case of complex matrices) but preserves positive definiteness. What does this mean in particular …
algebraic topology - Stable homotopy groups of unitary groups vs ...
Mar 31, 2020 · This allows one to form "stable" homotopy groups $\pi_k^s (U)$ of the unitary groups. (Note: "Stable" has a different meaning in comparison to "stable" homotopy groups of the spheres.)
linear algebra - How to convert a random matrix to Unitary Matrix ...
The Gram-Schmidt procedure gives you an orthonormal basis, which when arragned into a matrix gives a unitary matrix. I included the normalization step in the procedure, so the determinant of the …
Unitary operator as an exponent of self-adjoint
May 20, 2020 · (r) $$ in the domain is, in fact, a unitary operator. My answer relies on two definitions: the definition of a bounded operator and the definition of a unitary operator. These definitions are given …
