## Tensor product of Hilbert spaces.

iven two Hilbert spaces one can form pairs , , and finite linear combinations of such pairs for any choice of , , , .

Definition

(Algebraic tensor product of Hilbert spaces) Let then the quotient space is called "(algebraic) tersor product" of spaces and . The equivalence class around is denoted

Proposition

(Tensor product properties 1) Let .

1. have linear operations:

2. , , s.t. .

3. The form defined by has properties of scalar product.

Definition

(Complete tensor product of Hilbert spaces) Completion of with respect to is called "(complete) tensor product" of and and denoted .

Proposition

(Tensor product properties 2)

1. is a Hilbert space.

2. If is an (orthonormal) basis in and is an (orthonormal) basis in then is an (orthonormal) basis in .

Definition

(Tensor product of bounded operators) Given two operators and we define the tensor product according to the formula (notation of the proposition ( Tensor product properties 1 )-2):

Proposition

(Tensor product of function spaces) If and are Hilbert spaces of functions on a domain then then there is a homeomorphism from to a linear space of functions on via the correspondence
