Unitarity refers to a property of an operator in a Hilbert space where the operator preserves the inner product of vectors, meaning that it maintains the norm of vectors. This property ensures that probabilities remain consistent in quantum mechanics and reflects the idea that evolution in a closed quantum system is reversible. Unitary operators play a crucial role in spectral theory, particularly in the context of transformations that preserve the structure of the space they operate on.
congrats on reading the definition of Unitarity. now let's actually learn it.
