Abstract: Let and be two idempotents on a Hilbert space. In 2005, J. Giol in [Segments of bounded linear idempotents on a Hilbert space, J. Funct. Anal. 229(2005) 405-423] had established that, if is invertible, then and are homotopic with In this paper, we have given a necessary and sufficient condition that where denotes the minimal number of segments required to connect not only from to , but also from to in the set of idempotents.
