IMC 1995 Problem 7

    Let AA be a 3×33\times 3 real matrix such that the vectors AuAu and uu are orthogonal for every column vector u∈R3u\in \mathbb{R}^{3} . Prove that: a) AT=−AA^{T}=-A . b) there exists a vector v∈R3v \in \mathbb{R}^{3} such that Au=v×uAu=v\times u for every u∈R3u\in \mathbb{R}^{3} , where v×uv \times u denotes the vector product in R3\mathbb{R}^{3} .
