Abstract: Let $V$ be a vector space over a field $mathbbF$ with scalar product given by a nondegenerate sesquilinear form whose matrix is diagonal in some basis. If $mathbbF=mathbbC$, then we give canonical matrices of isometric and selfadjoint operators on $V$ using known classifications of isometric and selfadjoint operators on a complex vector space with nondegenerate Hermitian form. If $mathbbF$ is a field of characteristic different from $2$, then we give canonical matrices of isometric, selfadjoint, and skewadjoint operators on $V$ up to classification of symmetric and Hermitian forms over finite extensions of $mathbbF$.
