We consider the Euclidean space $E = \mathscr{M}_{N,1}(\mathbf{R})$ equipped with the inner product $\langle X, Y \rangle = \sum_{i=1}^{N} X[i] Y[i] \pi[i]$, and the endomorphism $u : X \mapsto (I_N - K)X$ with $q_u(X) = (u(X) \mid X)$. Show that for all $X \in E$, $$q_u(X) = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{i=1}^{N} \sum_{j=1}^{N} (X[i] - X[j])^2 K[i,j] \pi[i]$$ What can be said about the eigenvalues of $u$?
