Functional analysis is a branch of mathematical analysis, the core of which is formed by the study of vector spaces endowed with some kind of limit-related structure (for example, inner product, norm, or topology) and the linear functions defined on these spaces and suitably respecting these structures.
The first inequality (that is, ‖ ‖ < for all ) states that the functionals in are pointwise bounded while the second states that they are uniformly bounded. The second supremum always equals ‖ ‖ (,) = ‖ ‖, ‖ ‖ and if is not the trivial vector space (or if the supremum is taken over [,] rather than [,]) then closed unit ball can be replaced with the unit sphere
A function analysis diagram (FAD) is a method used in engineering design to model and visualize the functions and interactions between components of a system or product. It represents the functional relationships through a diagram consisting of blocks, which represent physical components, and labeled relations/arrows between them, which represent useful or harmful functional interactions.
The spectrum of a linear operator that operates on a Banach space is a fundamental concept of functional analysis. The spectrum consists of all scalars λ {\displaystyle \lambda } such that the operator T − λ {\displaystyle T-\lambda } does not have a bounded inverse on X {\displaystyle X} .

In functional analysis, the open mapping theorem, also known as the Banach–Schauder theorem or the Banach theorem [1] (named after Stefan Banach and Juliusz Schauder), is a fundamental result that states that if a bounded or continuous linear operator between Banach spaces is surjective then it is an open map.
In functional analysis, a state of an operator system is a positive linear functional of norm 1. States in functional analysis generalize the notion of density matrices in quantum mechanics, which represent quantum states, both mixed states and pure states. Density matrices in turn generalize state vectors, which only represent pure states.
