A linear operator : between two topological vector spaces (TVSs) is called a bounded linear operator or just bounded if whenever is bounded in then () is bounded in . A subset of a TVS is called bounded (or more precisely, von Neumann bounded ) if every neighborhood of the origin absorbs it.
A linear map is "bounded on a neighborhood" (of some point) if and only if it is locally bounded at every point of its domain, in which case it is necessarily continuous [2] (even if its domain is not a normed space) and thus also bounded (because a continuous linear operator is always a bounded linear operator). [6]
Thus a unitary operator is a bounded linear operator that is both an isometry and a coisometry, [1] or, equivalently, a surjective isometry. [2] An equivalent definition is the following: Definition 2. A unitary operator is a bounded linear operator U : H → H on a Hilbert space H for which the following hold: U is surjective, and
Variable-binding operators are logical operators that occur in almost every formal language. A binding operator Q takes two arguments: a variable v and an expression P, and when applied to its arguments produces a new expression Q(v, P). The meaning of binding operators is supplied by the semantics of the language and does not concern us here.
In its basic form, it asserts that for a family of continuous linear operators (and thus bounded operators) whose domain is a Banach space, pointwise boundedness is equivalent to uniform boundedness in operator norm. The theorem was first published in 1927 by Stefan Banach and Hugo Steinhaus, but it was also proven independently by Hans Hahn.
Let be a bounded linear operator acting on a Banach space over the complex scalar field , and be the identity operator on .The spectrum of is the set of all for which the operator does not have an inverse that is a bounded linear operator.
Let X and Y be normed linear spaces, and denote by B(X,Y) the space of bounded operators of the form :.Let be any subset. We say that T is bounded below on whenever there is a constant (,) such that for all , the inequality ‖ ‖ ‖ ‖ holds.
The family of finite-rank operators () on a Hilbert space form a two-sided *-ideal in (), the algebra of bounded operators on . In fact it is the minimal element among such ideals, that is, any two-sided *-ideal I {\displaystyle I} in L ( H ) {\displaystyle L(H)} must contain the finite-rank operators.
