  2. Hilbert matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert_matrix

    The Hilbert matrix is also totally positive (meaning that the determinant of every submatrix is positive). The Hilbert matrix is an example of a Hankel matrix. It is also a specific example of a Cauchy matrix. The determinant can be expressed in closed form, as a special case of the Cauchy determinant. The determinant of the n × n Hilbert ...

  3. Spectral theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_theory

    In mathematics, spectral theory is an inclusive term for theories extending the eigenvector and eigenvalue theory of a single square matrix to a much broader theory of the structure of operators in a variety of mathematical spaces. [1] It is a result of studies of linear algebra and the solutions of systems of linear equations and their ...

  4. Hilbert space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert_space

    The algebra of observables in quantum mechanics is naturally an algebra of operators defined on a Hilbert space, according to Werner Heisenberg's matrix mechanics formulation of quantum theory. [25] Von Neumann began investigating operator algebras in the 1930s, as rings of operators on a Hilbert space.

    In fact, if is a non-zero vector in , the norm closure of the linear orbit [] is separable (by construction) and hence a proper subspace and also invariant. von Neumann showed [10] that any compact operator on a Hilbert space of dimension at least 2 has a non-trivial invariant subspace.

  6. Normal operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_operator

    In mathematics, especially functional analysis, a normal operator on a complex Hilbert space H is a continuous linear operator N : H → H that commutes with its Hermitian adjoint N*, that is: NN* = N*N. [1] Normal operators are important because the spectral theorem holds for them. The class of normal operators is well understood.

  7. Spectrum (functional analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrum_(functional_analysis)

    Let B be a complex Banach algebra containing a unit e. Then we define the spectrum σ(x) (or more explicitly σ B (x)) of an element x of B to be the set of those complex numbers λ for which λe − x is not invertible in B. This extends the definition for bounded linear operators B(X) on a Banach space X, since B(X) is a unital Banach algebra.

  8. Trace inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_inequality

    In mathematics, there are many kinds of inequalities involving matrices and linear operators on Hilbert spaces. This article covers some important operator inequalities connected with traces of matrices. [1] [2] [3] [4]

  9. Hilbert series and Hilbert polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hilbert_series_and_Hilbert...

    Here we are using Hilbert series of filtered algebras, and the fact that the Hilbert series of a graded algebra is also its Hilbert series as filtered algebra. Thus R 0 {\displaystyle R_{0}} is an Artinian ring , which is a k -vector space of dimension P (1) , and Jordan–Hölder theorem may be used for proving that P (1) is the degree of the ...
