Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space. Let $L_1$ denote the space of trace class operators on $H$ with the trace-class norm $\|\cdot\|_1$, i.e. $\|K\|_1=Tr|K|$ for all $K\in L_1$. Are there easy ...

Let $H$ be the space of measurable functions on $(0,1)$ such that $$ \|u\|_{H}^2 = \int_0^1 x^2\,|\partial_x u|^2\,dx + \int_{0}^1 |u|^2\,dx <\infty.$$ Let $C>0$ be a constant. Suppose that $W \...

Let $U= (0,1)\times (0,1)$. Consider the weighted Sobolev spaces $H_1$ with the norms $$ \|u\|_{H_1}^2 = \int_0^1 (\int_0^1 x\,|u(x,y)|^2\,dx) \,dy$$ Let $H_2$ be the weighted Sobolev space with the ...

Is the spectral theorem for self-adjoint compact operators on a Hilbert space also true if the Hilbert space is real (instead of complex)? Wikipedia says this is true. However, it seems to me that ...

Let $B=-B$ be a nowhere dense bounded closed convex set in the Hilbert space $\ell_2$ such that the linear hull of $B$ is dense in $\ell_2$. Question. Is there a non-compact linear bounded operator ...

Consider the function $\text{E}_W: L_2(\mathbb{R},P_X) \mapsto L_2(\mathbb{R},P_W)$ where $P_X$ and $P_W$ are two different probability measures. They are related in such a way that if $f_X$, $f_W$ ...
