Orthogonal Complement of a Linear Subspace

Statement

Let VV together with ⟨⋅,⋅⟩\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle be a complex inner product space and let WW be a linear subspace of VV.

The orthogonal complement of WW is the set

W⊥={x∈V : ⟨w,x⟩=0  for every w∈W},W^{\perp}=\bigl\{x\in V\ :\ \langle w,x\rangle=0\ \text{ for every }w\in W\bigr\},

where 00 is the zero element of the field of complex numbers.
