摘要:
Given an oblique projector P on a Hilbert space, i.e., an operator satisfying P-2 = P, which is neither null nor the identity, it holds that parallel to P parallel to = parallel to I - P parallel to. This useful equality, while not widely-known, has been proven repeatedly in the literature. Many published proofs are reviewed, and simpler ones are presented.
