Let $A$ be a $3times 3$ orthogonal matrix with determinant $=1$.
Let $v$ be an eigen vector corresponding to $1$ of $A$.Let $W=text{span}{v}$.
Show that $L_A$ preserves $W^perp$ and it acts on it by orthogonal transformation and in particular rotation.




MY TRY::



Given $Av=vimplies v=A^{-1}v$



Also $L_A:Bbb R^3to Bbb R^3$ defined by $L_A(x)=Ax$.



Let $win W^perpimplies langle w,vrangle =0$



To show $L_A(w)in W^perp$.



Now $L_A(w)=Aw$



Also $langle Aw,vrangle =langle w,A^Tvrangle= langle
w,A^{-1}vrangle=langle w,vrangle =0$



Thus $L_A(w)in W^perp$.-------------(Proved)



hence we can consider the restriction $L_A:W^perpto W^perp$



But how can I show that it is an orthogonal transformation and in aprticular a rotation?

          Since $A.W^perpsubset W^perp$ and since $A$ is orthogonal, $A$ induces an orthogonal map from $W^perp$ into itself. Suppose that it is not a rotation. Fix an orthonormal basis $B$ of $W^perp$. Then the matrix of $A|_{W^perp}$ with respect to $B$ is an orthogonal matrix with determinant $-1$. But then $det A=1times(-1)=-1$. This is impossible, since we're assuming that $det A=1$.
