Take $v\in U^\perp$ and $u\in U$. Because $U$ is an <invariant subspace>, $Tu\in U$. The <adjoint operator> relation yields
$$
\langle Tv,u\rangle=\langle v,T^*u\rangle=-\langle v,Tu\rangle=0.
$$
This holds for every $u\in U$, so $Tv\in U^\perp$. Therefore \b[the <orthogonal complement> is also an <invariant subspace>].
