In mathematics, especially functional analysis, a normal operator on a complex Hilbert space H is a continuous linear operator N : H → H that commutes with its hermitian adjoint N*, that is: NN* = N*N. Normal operators are important because the spectral theorem holds for them. The class of normal operators is well-understood.
