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 seminorms in infinite-dimensional vector spaces. Related to these structures, you will understand basic properties of bounded linear operators, duality and spectral theory in Banach spaces.
