Functional analysis is that branch of mathematics and specifically of analysis which is concerned with the study of spaces of functions.
An important object of study in functional analysis are the continuous linear operators defined on Banach and Hilbert spaces.
The notion of derivative is extended to arbitrary functions between Banach spaces; it turns out that the derivative of a function at a certain point is really a continuous linear map.

In (additional info and facts about functional analysis) functional analysis, the Borel functional calculus is a (A system of symbolic logic that represents individuals and predicates and quantification over individuals (as well as the relations between propositions)) functional calculus (i.e.
However, it is desirable to formulate the functional calculus in a way in which it is clear that it does not depend on the particular representation of T as a multiplication operator.
Using the multiplication by a function f model of a self-adjoint operator given by the spectral theorem, this is multiplication by the composition of h with f.

The prototypical example of a C*-algebra is the algebra L(H) of continuous linear operators defined on a complex Hilbert space H; here x* denotes the adjoint operator of the operator x : H
Their study is a specialized area of functional analysis in itself, separate from C*-algebras.
In quantum field theory, one typically describes a physical system with a C*-algebra A with unit element; the self-adjoint elements of A (elements x with x* = x) are thought of as the observables, the measurable quantities, of the system.

These lead naturally to the definition of C* algebras and other operator algebras.
Since finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces are fully understood in linear algebra, and since morphisms of Hilbert spaces can always be divided into morphisms of spaces with Aleph-null (ℵ
) dimensionality, functional analysis of Hilbert spaces mostly deals with the unique Hilbert space of dimensionality Aleph-null, and its morphisms.
