Statement flagged by 0 users
Reason: Notation sweep: the standard basis is now presented as the n-tuple in C^n whose components are the standard basis vectors, referencing def:finite-tuple-power-2026a, in place of a map from the initial segment, and the orthonormal-basis reference points at def:orthonormal-basis-2026b. Change of presentation only; all four claims are unchanged. · 1,799 chars · 17 deps · depth 13

Statement

Let nn be a natural number, let [n][n] be the initial segment determined by nn, and let Cn\mathbb{C}^{n} be the complex coordinate space, which is a complex vector space by The Complex Coordinate Space is a Complex Vector Space and, together with the standard inner product ,\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle, a complex inner product space by claim 1 of The Standard Inner Product Makes the Complex Coordinate Space an Inner Product Space. Let \lVert\cdot\rVert be the induced norm, let ee be the nn-tuple in Cn\mathbb{C}^{n} whose components eke_{k} are the standard basis vectors, and let u,vCnu,v\in\mathbb{C}^{n} have components uku_{k} and vkv_{k}. Sums of vectors are finite sums in Cn\mathbb{C}^{n} and sums of scalars are finite sums in a field; z|z| is the modulus of a complex number zz and z\overline{z} its conjugate. Then the following hold.

1. (Components as coefficients) For every k[n]k\in[n],

ek,u=uk.\langle e_{k},u\rangle=u_{k}.

2. (Expansion)

u=k=1nukek.u=\sum_{k=1}^{n}u_{k}e_{k}.

3. (Orthonormal basis) The tuple ee is an orthonormal basis of Cn\mathbb{C}^{n}.

4. (Parseval)

u,v=k=1nukvk,u2=k=1nuk2.\langle u,v\rangle=\sum_{k=1}^{n}\overline{u_{k}}\,v_{k},\qquad \lVert u\rVert^{2}=\sum_{k=1}^{n}|u_{k}|^{2}.
