def
Defines equivalence by one surjective isometry intertwining all algebra actions.
Statement
Let be a complex -algebra, with no unit assumed, and let and be -representations on complex Hilbert spaces. They are unitarily equivalent precisely when the following condition holds.
Definition
There exists a surjective complex-linear isometry such that Equivalently, for all , or . The inverse exists because is onto as well as isometric. An abstract isomorphism of and without these intertwining equations is not the defined condition.
Assumptions
Both representations have the same source algebra. Neither irreducibility, nonzero action, separability, nor finite dimension is required.
Conclusion
One unitary from onto intertwines the two actions of every algebra element.

(pi : NonUnitalCStarRepresentation A H) |
The representation on the complete complex Hilbert space . |
(rho : NonUnitalCStarRepresentation A K) |
The representation of the same on the complete complex Hilbert space . |
∃ U : H ≃ₗᵢ[ℂ] K |
Choose one complex-linear isometric equivalence , including surjectivity and an inverse. |
∀ (a : A) (x : H) |
That same must work for every algebra element and every vector in its domain. |
U (pi a x) = rho a (U x) |
Act by in and then apply , or first apply and then act by in ; the two resulting vectors are equal. |
