Adjoint of operators on Hilbert spaces

Given an operator A : E →L[𝕜] F, where E and F are Hilbert spaces, its adjoint adjoint A : F →L[𝕜] E is the unique operator such that ⟪x, A y⟫ = ⟪adjoint A x, y⟫ for all x and y.

We then use this to put a C⋆-algebra structure on E →L[𝕜] E with the adjoint as the star operation.

This construction is used to define an adjoint for linear maps (i.e. not continuous) between finite dimensional spaces.

Main definitions

• ContinuousLinearMap.adjoint : (E →L[𝕜] F) ≃ₗᵢ⋆[𝕜] (F →L[𝕜] E): the adjoint of a continuous linear map, bundled as a conjugate-linear isometric equivalence.
• LinearMap.adjoint : (E →ₗ[𝕜] F) ≃ₗ⋆[𝕜] (F →ₗ[𝕜] E): the adjoint of a linear map between finite-dimensional spaces, this time only as a conjugate-linear equivalence, since there is no norm defined on these maps.

Implementation notes

• The continuous conjugate-linear version adjointAux is only an intermediate definition and is not meant to be used outside this file.
