A Primer on Hilbert Space Theory: Linear Spaces, Topological Spaces, Metric Spaces, Normed Spaces, and Topological Groups (UNITEXT for Physics): summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "A Primer on Hilbert Space Theory: Linear Spaces, Topological Spaces, Metric Spaces, Normed Spaces, and Topological Groups (UNITEXT for Physics)" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

This book offers an essential introduction to the theory of Hilbert space, a fundamental tool for non-relativistic quantum mechanics. Linear, topological, metric, and normed spaces are all addressed in detail, in a rigorous but reader-friendly fashion. The rationale for providing an introduction to the theory of Hilbert space, rather than a detailed study of Hilbert space theory itself, lies in the strenuous mathematics demands that even the simplest physical cases entail. Graduate courses in physics rarely offer enough time to cover the theory of Hilbert space and operators, as well as distribution theory, with sufficient mathematical rigor. Accordingly, compromises must be found between full rigor and the practical use of the instruments. Based on one of the authorss lectures on functional analysis for graduate students in physics, the book will equip readers to approach Hilbert space and, subsequently, rigged Hilbert space, with a more practical attitude. It also includes a brief introduction to topological groups, and to other mathematical structures akin to Hilbert space. Exercises and solved problems accompany the main text, offering readers opportunities to deepen their understanding. The topics and their presentation have been chosen with the goal of quickly, yet rigorously and effectively, preparing readers for the intricacies of Hilbert space. Consequently, some topics, e.g., the Lebesgue integral, are treated in a somewhat unorthodox manner. The book is ideally suited for use in upper undergraduate and lower graduate courses, both in Physics and in Mathematics.

Preface to the Second Edition

Other than correction of typos, stylistic improvements, and the addition of many new exercises, two new chapters have been added to the book offering a non-classical view of the classical spaces and a guided tour of some of the main attractions of Hilbert space land. The new material creates a more evenly spread experience across the text and interjects the abstract ambient theory with more concrete scenarios.

The classical sequence spaces and function spaces are fundamental and go hand-in-hand with the general - photo 3 and function spaces are fundamental and go hand-in-hand with the general theory However the - photo 4 are fundamental and go hand-in-hand with the general theory. However, the function spaces are technically demanding and so they were only superficially treated in the first edition. The new chapter devoted to the classical spaces builds on the metric machinery already in place and attempts to create a clear conceptual framework that emphasizes the similarities between the two families of spaces. This approach complements the standard measure-theoretic presentations found in the literature.

The chapter devoted to Hilbert spaces is the new closing chapter of the book and is written in the form of a discussion. It highlights the practical simplification borne by the presence of an inner product as it draws upon the material in the previous chapters to compare against the situation in Banach spaces. In this way, the chapter serves both as a guided tour for the readers future journey to Hilbert space theory and a retrospective reflection on its preceding chapters. The topics covered are classical in Hilbert space theory but as they are handled here after a preliminary exposition of Banach spaces, the chapter takes the opportunity to create a richer historical context provided by a brief account of famous results in the development of the general theory.

Preface to the First Edition
The Structure of the Book

The book consists of eight chapters with an additional chapter of solved problems arranged by topic. Each chapter is composed of five sections, with each section accompanied by a set of exercises (with the exception of the shorter Chapter 7 with just a single batch of exercises). The total of 422 exercises and 50 solved problems comprise an integral part of the book designed to assist the reader and hone her intuition.

Chapter 1 is a general introduction to analysis and, in particular, to each of the subjects presented in the chapters that follow. Chapter 1 also contains a Preliminaries section, intended to quickly orient the reader as to the notation and concepts used throughout the book, starting with sets and ending with an axiomatic presentation of the real and complex numbers.

Chapter 2 is devoted to linear spaces. At the advanced undergraduate level, the reader is already familiar with at least some aspects of linear spaces, primarily finite-dimensional ones. The chapter does not rely on any previous knowledge though, and is in that sense self-contained. However, the material is somewhat advanced since the focus is the technically and conceptually demanding infinite-dimensional linear spaces.

Chapter 3 is an introduction to topology, a subject considered to be at a rather high level of abstraction. The main aim of the chapter is to familiarize the reader with the fundamentals of the theory, particularly the portions that are most directly relevant for analysis and Hilbert spaces. Care is taken to find a reasonable balance between the study of extreme topology, i.e., spaces or phenomena that one may consider pathological but that hone the topological intuition, and mundane topology, i.e., those spaces or phenomena one is most likely to find in nature but that may obscure the true nature of topology.
