Every bounded, self-adjoint, positive semi-definite operator on a complex Hilbert space is the square of a bounded, self-adjoint, positive semi-definite operator that commutes with every bounded operator commuting with the given one.

Statement

In the setting of Complex Hilbert Spaces and Bounded Linear Maps: Standing Notation, let HH be a complex Hilbert space and let T∈L(H)T\in\mathcal{L}(H) with T≥0T\ge0. Then there is S∈L(H)S\in\mathcal{L}(H) such that

1. (Square root) S≥0S\ge0 and SS=TSS=T; and

2. (Commutation) SS commutes with every B∈L(H)B\in\mathcal{L}(H) that commutes with TT.
