Operator theory | Hilbert space
In mathematics, a self-adjoint operator on an infinite-dimensional complex vector space V with inner product (equivalently, a Hermitian operator in the finite-dimensional case) is a linear map A (from V to itself) that is its own adjoint. If V is finite-dimensional with a given orthonormal basis, this is equivalent to the condition that the matrix of A is a Hermitian matrix, i.e., equal to its conjugate transpose A∗. By the finite-dimensional spectral theorem, V has an orthonormal basis such that the matrix of A relative to this basis is a diagonal matrix with entries in the real numbers. In this article, we consider generalizations of this concept to operators on Hilbert spaces of arbitrary dimension. Self-adjoint operators are used in functional analysis and quantum mechanics. In quantum mechanics their importance lies in the Dirac–von Neumann formulation of quantum mechanics, in which physical observables such as position, momentum, angular momentum and spin are represented by self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space. Of particular significance is the Hamiltonian operator defined by which as an observable corresponds to the total energy of a particle of mass m in a real potential field V. Differential operators are an important class of unbounded operators. The structure of self-adjoint operators on infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces essentially resembles the finite-dimensional case. That is to say, operators are self-adjoint if and only if they are unitarily equivalent to real-valued multiplication operators. With suitable modifications, this result can be extended to possibly unbounded operators on infinite-dimensional spaces. Since an everywhere-defined self-adjoint operator is necessarily bounded, one needs be more attentive to the domain issue in the unbounded case. This is explained below in more detail. (Wikipedia).
Self-adjoint operators. All eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator are real. On a complex vector space, if the inner product of Tv and v is real for every vector v, then T is self-adjoint.

Hermitian Operators (Self-Adjoint Operators) | Quantum Mechanics
In this video, we will talk about Hermitian operators in quantum mechanics. If an operator A is a Hermitian operator, then it is the same as its adjoint operator A-dagger, which is defined via this equation here. Usually, the terms "Hermitian" and "self adjoint" are used interchangeably, h

Adjoint / Daggered Operators in Quantum Mechanics
In this video, we will explain adjoint operators in quantum mechanics. First of all, for any operator A, we can define its adjoint, A-dagger, via this equation. The idea behind this is, that while operators in quantum mechanics usually act towards the right, adjoint operators act to the le
