Inner Product Groups and Riesz Representation Theorem

In this paper, we introduce an inner product on abelian groups and, after investigating the basic properties of the inner product, we first show that each inner product group is a torsion-free abelian normed group. We give examples of such groups and describe the norms induced by such inner products. Among other results, Hilbert groups, midconvex and orthogonal subgroups are presented, and a Riesz representation theorem on divisible Hilbert groups is proved.

Banach-Steinhaus Theorem for the Space P of All Primitives of Henstock-Kurzweil Integrable Functions

In this paper, it is shown how the Banach-Steinhaus theorem for the space P of all primitives of Henstock-Kurzweil integrable functions on a closed bounded interval, equipped with the uniform norm, can follow from the Banach-Steinhaus theorem for the Denjoy space by applying the classical Hahn-Banach theorem and Riesz representation theorem.

Hilbert Spaces

This chapter is a good introduction to Hilbert spaces and the elements of operator theory. The two leading sections contains staple topics such as the projection theorem, projection operators, the Riesz representation theorem, Bessel’s inequality, and the characterization of separable Hilbert spaces. Sections 7.3 and 7.4 contain a rather detailed study of self-adjoint and compact operators. Among the highlights are the Fredholm theory and the spectral theorems for compact self-adjoint and normal operators, with applications to integral equations. The section exercises contain problems that suggest alternative approaches, thus allowing the instructor to shorten the chapter while preserving good depth. The last section extends the results to compact operators on Banach spaces. The chapter contains more results than is typically found in an introductory course.

Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Semigroup on the dual space of Gelfand-Shilov Spaces of Beurling type

We use a previously obtained topological characterization of Gelfand-Shilov spaces of Beurling type to characterize its dual using Riesz representation theorem. Using the characterization of the dual space equipped with the weak topology, we study the action of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Semigroup on the dual space.

Characterization of the w-Tempered ultradistributions

We use apreviously obtained characterization of test functions of w-Tempered Ultradistributions to charcterize the space w-Tempered Ultradistributions using Riesz representation Theorem.

The Riesz representation theorem and weak∗ compactness of semimartingales

We show that the sequential closure of a family of probability measures on the canonical space of càdlàg paths satisfying Stricker’s uniform tightness condition is a weak∗ compact set of semimartingale measures in the dual pairing of bounded continuous functions and Radon measures, that is, the dual pairing from the Riesz representation theorem under topological assumptions on the path space. Similar results are obtained for quasi- and supermartingales under analogous conditions. In particular, we give a full characterisation of the strongest topology on the Skorokhod space for which these results are true.
