	Weak operator topology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The linear functionals on the set of bounded operators on a Hilbert space which are continuous in the strong operator topology are precisely those which are continuous in the WOT.
		Because of this fact, the closure of a convex set of operators in the WOT is the same as the closure of that set in the SOT.
		The WOT and the weak-star topology agree on bounded sets.

	EZGeography - Finer topology (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Any two topologies on X have a meet and join, in the sense of lattice theory; the meet is the intersection, but the join is not in general the union.
		In function spaces and spaces of measures there are often a number of possible topologies.
		See topologies on the set of operators on a Hilbert space for some intricate relationships.

		In mathematics, a Hilbert space is a generalization of Euclidean space that is not restricted to finite dimensions.
		Hilbert spaces are of crucial importance in the mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics.
		If a linear operator has a closed graph and is defined on all of a Hilbert space, then, by the closed graph theorem in Banach space theory, it is necessarily bounded.

	Operator topology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		(Redirected from Topologies on the set of operators on a Hilbert space)
		In mathematics, the requirements of functional analysis mean there are several standard topologies which are given to the algebra L(H) of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space H.
		The weak and strong topologies are widely used as cheap approximations to the ultraweak and ultrastrong topologies, and the remaining topologies are of little practical importance.

	Hilbert space
		Hilbert spaces serve to clarify and generalize the concept of Fourier expansion, certain linear transformations such as the Fourier transform, and are of crucial importance in the mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics.
		Of all the infinite-dimensional topological vector spaces, the Hilbert spaces are the most "well-behaved" and the closest to the finite-dimensional spaces.
		For a Hilbert space H, the continuous linear operators A : H → H are of particular interest.

		Hilbert spaces serve to clarify and generalize the concept of Fourier expansion and certain linear transformations such as the Fourier transform.
		Hilbert spaces are of crucial importance in the mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics, although many basic features of quantum mechanics can be understood without going into details about Hilbert spaces.
		The name "Hilbert space" was soon adopted by others, for example by Hermann Weyl in his book The Theory of Groups and Quantum Mechanics published in 1931 (English language paperback ISBN 0486602699).

	Von Neumann bicommutant theorem (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		The von Neumann bicommutant theorem relates the closure of a set of bounded operators on a Hilbert space in certain topologies to the bicommutant of that set.
		Let be a C* algebra of bounded operators on a Hilbert space H, such that the only closed subspaces of H left invariant by every operator in are the zero subspace and H itself.
		Then the closures of in the weak operator topology and the strong operator topology are equal, and are in turn equal to the bicommutant of.

	Basic Structures: Hilbert space
		Hilbert spaces are mentioned in most textbooks on quantum mechanics and functional analysis [3].
		Of course, all linear operators on a finite dimensional space are bounded anyway, and the B is used mostly for conformity with the infinite dimensional case.
		Abstract and concrete Hilbert spaces are completely analogous to "abstract vectors", and "vectors written out in components" in ordinary analytical geometry: the passage between the two amounts to a choice of basis, and often a computation can be simplified substantially by choosing a basis adapted to the problem.

	Mathematical Quantization
		Building on this idea, and most importantly on the fact that scalar-valued functions on a set correspond to operators on a Hilbert space, one can determine quantum analogs of a variety of classical structures.
		In particular, because topologies and measure classes on a set can be treated in terms of scalar-valued functions, we can transfer these constructions to the quantum realm, giving rise to C- and von Neumann algebras.In the first half of the book, the author quickly builds the operator* algebra setting.
		For professionals in operator algebras and functional analysis, it provides a readable tour of the current state of the field.

		For example, the set of rationals with square less than 2 has a rational upper bound (e.g., 1.5) but no rational least upper bound, because the square root of 2 isn't rational.
		If we have a space where Cauchy sequences are meaningful (such as a metric space, i.e., a space where distance is defined, or more generally a uniform space), a standard procedure to force all Cauchy sequences to converge is adding new points to the space (a process called completion).
		Occasionally, formal elements +∞ and -∞ are added to the reals to form the extended real number line, a compact space which isn't a field anymore but retains many of the properties of the real numbers.

		The first says that real numbers comprise a field, with addition and multiplication as well as division by nonzero numbers, which can be totally ordered on a number line in a way compatible with addition and multiplication.
		The set R is a field, meaning that addition and multiplication are defined and have the usual properties.

	What are operator algebras? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Simply stated, an operator algebra is a set of operators (bounded linear maps from a fixed space to itself) which forms an algebra (a ring which admits multiplication by scalars).
		The second is infinite-dimensional and so admits multiple topologies; relations between these topologies form the domain of analysis.
		A typical operator algebra is both noncommutative and infinite-dimensional, so the techniques involved in their study incorporate a blend of algebra and analysis.
