Learning outcomes
In this curricular unit are introduced the basic concepts of the theory of Banach and Hilbert spaces.

At the end of the curricular unit the students should be able to:
- apply the basic theory of complete metric spaces;
- identify the main normed spaces;
- apply the theory of the normed spaces and of the Banach spaces;
- identify the main spaces with inner product;
- apply the theory of spaces with an inner product and of Hilbert spaces;
- know and use the main theorems of functional analysis: Hahn-Banach, Banach-Steinhaus, open application and closed graph;
- apply the definition of spectrum of an operator;
- know and use the main properties of the spectrum of an operator.
