Let H be a Hilbert space. Show that if V is a closed subspace of H then any f∈H can be written as f=v+w with v∈V and w⊥V.
Suppose U:H→H is unitary (that is to say UU∗=U∗U=I ). Let
Anf=n1k=0∑n−1Ukf
and consider
X={g−Ug:g∈H}
(i) Show that U is an isometry and ∥An∥⩽1.
(ii) Show that X is a subspace of H and Anf→0 as n→∞ whenever f∈X.
(iii) Let V be the closure of X. Show that Anv→0 as n→∞ whenever v∈V.
(iv) Show that, if w⊥X, then Uw=w. Deduce that, if w⊥V, then Uw=w.
(v) If f∈H show that there is a w∈H such that Anf→w as n→∞.
