⎢ ⎢12(1+i)12(1+i)12(1+i)12(1i)⎥ ⎥

Open in App
Solution

A matrix U is said to be unitary matrix if UU=UU=I
where U is the conjugate transpose of U and I is an identity matrix.

Let U=⎢ ⎢12(1+i)12(1+i)12(1+i)12(1i)⎥ ⎥

U=⎢ ⎢12(1i)12(1i)12(1i)12(1+i)⎥ ⎥

UU=⎢ ⎢12(1+i)12(1+i)12(1+i)12(1i)⎥ ⎥⎢ ⎢12(1i)12(1i)12(1i)12(1+i)⎥ ⎥=[1001]

U is an unitary matrix.
