Show that an idem potent operator on a Hilbert space H is a
projection on H
iff it is normal.
A linear operator P:H→H is called idempotent if P = P2
Px = x
for orthogonal projection:
P2=P,⟨Px,y⟩=⟨x,Py⟩P^2=P,\langle Px,y\rangle =\langle x,Py\rangleP2=P,⟨Px,y⟩=⟨x,Py⟩
for normal operator:
PP∗=P∗PPP^*=P^*PPP∗=P∗P
for adjoint:
⟨Px,y⟩=⟨x,P∗y⟩\langle Px,y\rangle =\langle x,P^*y\rangle⟨Px,y⟩=⟨x,P∗y⟩
