Complex structure on $L^2(\mathbb R)$ generalizing the Hilbert transform

The Hilbert transform on the real Hilbert space $L^2(\mathbb R)$ is the singular integral operator $$ \mathcal H(f)(x) := \frac{1}{\pi} \int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{1}{x-y} f(y) dy. $$ It satisfies $\...

$x f'$ bounded by $x^2f $ and $f''$?

Consider the Hilbert space of functions $f \in L^2(\mathbb R)$ such that $x^2f \in L^2(\mathbb R) $ and $ f'' \in L^2(\mathbb R).$ I am wondering whether it is true that $xf'\in L^2(\mathbb R)$ as ...

Explicit isomorphism between $L^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$ and $L^2(\mathbb{R})$?

As Hilbert spaces, $L^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$ and $L^2(\mathbb{R})$ are isomorphic. Of course the isomoprhism is vastly not unique. I wonder if there are any particularly nice explicit isomorphisms. E.g. I ...

ODE system has zero as the only solution?

Let $V \subset H$ be a continuous, compact and dense embedding with $V$ and $H$ Hilbert spaces. Let $\beta_j:[0,T] \to \mathbb{R}$ be functions for each $j$, and let $v_j$ be a basis of $V_0$. ...

A linear operator equation (PDE) with non-monotone term

I'm interested in the existence and/or uniqueness to the following problem. Let $V$ and $H$ be Hilbert spaces and $V \subset H \subset V^*$ form a Gelfand triple. There is a linear operator $L:{D}(L) ...

If we don't care about uniqueness, can we relax the coercivity condition in Lax-Milgram theorem?

Let $(H, \langle \cdot, \cdot \rangle)$ be a real Hilbert space and $\|\cdot \|$ its induced norm. Let $a: H \times H \to \mathbb R$ be a bilinear form. We say that $a$ is coercive IFF there is $C>...
