explicit self adjoint operator which has no diagonalization

160 Views Asked by At

Let a linear operator $T : H \to H$ be diagonalizable if $H$ has an orthonormal basis composed of eigenvectors of $H$

Give an example of an explicit self adjoint operator which has no diagonalization and prove it has no diagonalization.

Considering $f(t)\to tf(t)$ can I some how show that it has no diagonalization because no orthonormal basis is composed of eigenvectors?

Any other direction?
