We prove Broyden's theorem by induction on the dimension. We assume $| \alpha | < 1$ and we introduce the matrices $$Q _ { - } = P - \frac { r { } ^ { t } q } { \alpha - 1 } , \quad Q _ { + } = P - \frac { r { } ^ { t } q } { \alpha + 1 }$$ where $O = \left( \begin{array} { l l } P & r \\ { } ^ { t } q & \alpha \end{array} \right)$ with $P \in M _ { n - 1 } ( \mathbb { R } )$, $r , q \in \mathbb { R } ^ { n - 1 }$, $\alpha \in \mathbb { R }$. Show that the matrices $Q _ { + }$ and $Q _ { - }$ are orthogonal.
