Abstract Let σ ℓ2 and σR∞ be the linear involutions of ℓ2 and R∞, respectively, given by the formula x → −x. We prove that although ℓ2 and R∞ are homeomorphic, σℓ2 is not topologically conjugate to σR∞. We proceed to examine the implications of this and give characterizations of the involutions that are conjugate to σℓ2 and to σR∞. We show that the linear involution x → −x of a separable, infinite-dimensional Fréchet space E is topologically conjugate to σℓ2 if and only if E contains an infinite-dimensional Banach subspace and otherwise is linearly conjugate to σR∞.
