    The document discusses inner products and properties of Hermitian matrices. It defines an inner product of vectors z and w as the conjugate transpose of z multiplied by w. A matrix A is Hermitian if the inner product of Az and w equals the inner product of z and Aw for all vectors z and w. The inner product of the i-th column of the identity matrix and the j-th column of a matrix A equals the conjugate of the j-th column of A.

    *Standard inner product

    : z1 = a first column
    : <z, w> = (z^t)(conjugate of “w”)

    ====================================================

    *Theorem 8.7.1

    ====================================================

    *Conjugate transpose

    ====================================================

    *Hermitian

    ====================================================

    Theorem 8.7.4
    (1) “A” is Hermitian => <Az, w> = <z, Aw>

    (2) <Az, w> = <z, Aw> => “A” is Hermitian

    : ei = “i”th column of an identity matrix


    : ej = “j” th column of an identity matrix
    : Aej = a conjugate of the “j”th column of A
    <ei, Aej> = (0, … 1, ..0) * conjugate of (a1j, a2j, … , anj)^t
    : Note that <x,y>=(x^t)(y) is reversed because a column vector is inexpressible in MS Word.
