for all ''a'', ''b'' in '''C''' and all ''x'', ''y'' in ''V'', where <math>\bar{a}</math> and <math>\bar{b}</math> are the [[complex conjugate]]s of ''a'' and ''b'' respectively. The [[composition (mathematics)|composition]] of two antilinear maps is complex-[[linear]].

An antilinear map <math>f:V\to W</math> may be equivalently described in terms of the [[linear map]] <math>\bar f:V\to\bar W</math> from <math>V</math> to the [[complex conjugate vector space]] <math>\bar W</math>.
 
Antilinear maps occur in quantum mechanics in the study of [[T-symmetry|time reversal]] and in [[spinor calculus]], where it is customary to replace the bars over the basis vectors and the components of geometric objects by dots put above the indices.
