Functional Analysis
Functional analysis is organized around adequate techniques to bring function spaces as topological vector spaces within reach of the ideas that would apply to normed spaces of finite dimension.
- Schwartz space of smooth functions of rapid decrease and its dual, tempered distributions
- Lp space
- κ(R) continuous functions with compact support endowed with the uniform norm topology
- B(R) bounded continuous (Bounded function)
- C∞(R) continuous functions which vanish at infinity
- Cr(R) continuous functions that have continuous first r derivatives.
- C∞(R) Smooth functions
- C∞c smooth functions with compact support
- D(R) compact support in limit topology
- Wk,p Sobolev space
- OU holomorphic functions
- linear functions
- piecewise linear functions
- continuous functions, compact open topology
- all functions, space of pointwise convergence
- Hardy space
- Hölder space
- Càdlàg functions, also known as the Skorokhod space

Famous quotes containing the words functional and/or analysis:
“In short, the building becomes a theatrical demonstration of its functional ideal. In this romanticism, High-Tech architecture is, of course, no different in spirit—if totally different in form—from all the romantic architecture of the past.”
—Dan Cruickshank (b. 1949)
“The spider-mind acquires a faculty of memory, and, with it, a singular skill of analysis and synthesis, taking apart and putting together in different relations the meshes of its trap. Man had in the beginning no power of analysis or synthesis approaching that of the spider, or even of the honey-bee; but he had acute sensibility to the higher forces.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
