MS-E1461 - Hilbert Spaces D, Exam, 21.12.2021-21.12.2021

Guest access
Please note! Course description is confirmed for two academic years, which means that in general, e.g. Learning outcomes, assessment methods and key content stays unchanged. However, via course syllabus, it is possible to specify or change the course execution in each realization of the course, such as how the contact sessions are organized, assessment methods weighted or materials used.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

You will learn about norms and inner products in infinite-dimensional vector spaces. Related to these structures, you will understand basic properties of bounded linear operators and duality in Hilbert spaces, together with diagonalization of compact self-adjoint operators.

FURTHER INFORMATION

Further Information

  • valid for whole curriculum period:

    This course is related to MS-E1462 Banach spaces, but these two courses are not prerequisites to each other. Hilbert spaces are a special case of Banach spaces important in many applications.
