Introduction to Hilbert Space and the Theory of Spectral Multiplicity

Viac o knihe

The book presents a structured exploration of advanced mathematical concepts through three key chapters: the geometry of Hilbert space, the structure of self-adjoint and normal operators, and multiplicity theory for normal operators. While the first two chapters serve as an accessible introduction to Hilbert space, understanding the multiplicity theory requires a solid grasp of measure theory. Authored by renowned mathematician Paul Richard Halmos, it reflects his significant contributions to operator theory and functional analysis, showcasing his talent for clear mathematical exposition.
