Properties of the rank of a linear operator rank AB min rank A rank B rank A rank B - n rank AB where A and B are linear operators in L V V and n dim V. Remark. If rank A n then rank AB rank BA rank B . Theorem. Let A V V be a linear operator Then the following statements are equivalent 1. A is invertible i. e. there exists A-1 . 2. ker A 0. 3. im A V. 4. rank A dim V. . Notion of a adjoint operator. Hermitian operators. Let A 6 L V V be a bounded linear operator in a Hilbert space V. The operator A in L V V is called its adjoint operator if Ax y x A y for all x and y in V. Theorem.
