Abstract
Let be a vector space over a field with scalar product given by a nondegenerate sesquilinear form whose matrix is diagonal in some basis. If , then we give canonical matrices of isometric and selfadjoint operators on using known classifications of isometric and selfadjoint operators on a complex vector space with nondegenerate Hermitian form. If is a field of characteristic different from , then we give canonical matrices of isometric, selfadjoint, and skewadjoint operators on up to classification of symmetric and Hermitian forms over finite extensions of .
