David,

Thank you for your response

Basically, what I am trying to accomplish is to prove orthogonal conditions
of complex eigenfunctions
I have a matrix A
A=I-Identity matrix
And i have the state space eigenvectors

phi_real={Re[v]-Im[v],lamda*Re[v]-Im[v]}
phi_imag={Re[v]+Im[v],lamda*Re[v]+Im[v]}
phi=phi_real+i*phi_imag
Where v is the eigenfunction say Sinh[lamda*x]


<A*phi,phi>=2*I =
--><w1,w2>=Integrate[Transpose[w1]*Conjugate[w2]],{x,0,1}]-->(I
don't know whether this is the correct way to go about it)
lamda is some imaginary eigenvalue, lamda=a+I*b

Hope this helps

Thanks again,

Best Regards,
Pratik Desai
