Starting with a definition of Hilbert space and its geometry, this text explores the general theory of bounded linear operators, the spectral analysis of compact linear operators, and unbounded self-adjoint operators. Familiarity with analysis and analytic geometry is the only prerequisite. Extensive appendixes complement the text. 1969 edition.
