In mathematics, more specifically in functional analysis, a Banach space (pronounced ) is a complete normed vector space.Thus, a Banach space is a vector space with a metric that allows the computation of vector length and distance between vectors and is complete in the sense that a Cauchy sequence of vectors always converges to a well-defined limit that is within the space.
In mathematics, an inner product space (or, rarely, a Hausdorff pre-Hilbert space [1] [2]) is a real vector space or a complex vector space with an operation called an inner product. The inner product of two vectors in the space is a scalar , often denoted with angle brackets such as in a , b {\displaystyle \langle a,b\rangle } .
Let and be Banach spaces, : a closed linear operator whose domain () is dense in , and ′ the transpose of . The theorem asserts that the following conditions are equivalent: The theorem asserts that the following conditions are equivalent:
Tsirelson space, a reflexive Banach space in which neither nor can be embedded. W.T. Gowers construction of a space X {\displaystyle X} that is isomorphic to X ⊕ X ⊕ X {\displaystyle X\oplus X\oplus X} but not X ⊕ X {\displaystyle X\oplus X} serves as a counterexample for weakening the premises of the Schroeder–Bernstein theorem [ 1 ]
An important early example was the Banach algebra of essentially bounded measurable functions on a measure space X. This set of functions is a Banach space under pointwise addition and scalar multiplication. With the operation of pointwise multiplication, it becomes a special type of Banach space, one now called a commutative von Neumann algebra.
Every normed vector space can be "uniquely extended" to a Banach space, which makes normed spaces intimately related to Banach spaces. Every Banach space is a normed space but converse is not true. For example, the set of the finite sequences of real numbers can be normed with the Euclidean norm, but it is not complete for this norm. An inner ...
The normed vector space ((,), ‖ ‖) is called space or the Lebesgue space of -th power integrable functions and it is a Banach space for every (meaning that it is a complete metric space, a result that is sometimes called the Riesz–Fischer theorem).
A real inner product space is defined in the same way, except that H is a real vector space and the inner product takes real values. Such an inner product will be a bilinear map and ( H , H , ⋅ , ⋅ ) {\displaystyle (H,H,\langle \cdot ,\cdot \rangle )} will form a dual system .
