For ∣±i⟩=(∣0⟩±i∣1⟩)/2​, direct matrix multiplication by the Hadamard gate gives coefficients (1±i,1∓i)/2, proving the displayed identities. This exchanges the two Pauli eigenstates of the Pauli Y gate and agrees with HYH=−Y. The phases in the formula are global phases for each separate state; the relative phase inside each state is essential.
