Phase-isometries between normed spaces

2020, arXiv (Cornell University)

Abstract

Let X and Y be real normed spaces and f : X → Y a surjective mapping. Then f satisfies { f (x) + f (y) , f (x) − f (y) } = { x + y , x − y }, x, y ∈ X, if and only if f is phase equivalent to a surjective linear isometry, that is, f = σU , where U : X → Y is a surjective linear isometry and σ : X → {−1, 1}. This is a Wigner's type result for real normed spaces.
