This is an approximate-eigenvector construction for A=T†TA=T^\dagger TA=T†T.

Let H0,H1H_0,H_1H0​,H1​ be complete real Hilbert spaces, let T:H0→H1T:H_0\to H_1T:H0​→H1​ be closed with dense domain, and let λ,η∈R\lambda,\eta\in\mathbb{R}λ,η∈R with λ>0\lambda>0λ>0. Assume:

  1. For every y∈D(T)y\in D(T)y∈D(T) orthogonal to ker⁡T\ker TkerT, λ∥y∥2≤∥Ty∥2\lambda\|y\|^2\le\|Ty\|^2λ∥y∥2≤∥Ty∥2.
  2. y∈D(T)y\in D(T)y∈D(T) is orthogonal to ker⁡T\ker TkerT.
  3. ∥y∥=1\|y\|=1∥y∥=1.
  4. ∥Ty∥2≤λ(1+η)\|Ty\|^2\le\lambda(1+\eta)∥Ty∥2≤λ(1+η).

Then there exists z∈D(A)z\in D(A)z∈D(A), orthogonal to ker⁡T\ker TkerT, such that

∥y−z∥≤η/8,\|y-z\|\le\sqrt{\eta/8},∥y−z∥≤η/8​, ∥Az−λz∥≤λη/2.\|Az-\lambda z\|\le\lambda\sqrt{\eta/2}.∥Az−λz∥≤λη/2​.

The theorem does not assume η≥0\eta\ge0η≥0 in its type and does not assert the existence of an exact eigenvector.
