Statement

Let VV together with ,\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle be a complex inner product space and let TT be a linear operator on VV.

The operator TT is positive semi-definite if for every uVu\in V the complex number u,T(u)\langle u,T(u)\rangle is a real number satisfying

0u,T(u),0\le\langle u,T(u)\rangle,

the order being that of the ordered field of real numbers.
