Über dieses Buch

This textbook is a completely revised, updated, and expanded English edition of the important Analyse fonctionnelle (1983). In addition, it contains a wealth of problems and exercises (with solutions) to guide the reader. Uniquely, this book presents in a coherent, concise and unified way the main results from functional analysis together with the main results from the theory of partial differential equations (PDEs). Although there are many books on functional analysis and many on PDEs, this is the first to cover both of these closely connected topics. Since the French book was first published, it has been translated into Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Romanian, Greek and Chinese. The English edition makes a welcome addition to this list.

Chapter 1. The Hahn–Banach Theorems. Introduction to the Theory of Conjugate Convex Functions
Abstract
Let E be a vector space over \(\mathbb{R}.\) We recall that a functional is a function defined on E, or on some subspace of E, with values in \(\mathbb{R}.\) The main result of this section concerns the extension of a linear functional defined on a linear subspace of E by a linear functional defined on all of E.

Chapter 2. The Uniform Boundedness Principle and the Closed Graph Theorem

Chapter 3. Weak Topologies. Reflexive Spaces. Separable Spaces. Uniform Convexity
Abstract
We begin this chapter by recalling a well-known concept in topology. Suppose X is a set (without any structure) and \({({Y_i})_{i \in I}}\) is a collection of topological spaces.

Chapter 6. Compact Operators. Spectral Decomposition of Self-Adjoint Compact Operators
Abstract
Throughout this chapter, and unless otherwise specified, E and F denote two Banach spaces.

Chapter 7. The Hille–Yosida Theorem
Abstract
Throughout this chapter H denotes a Hilbert space.

Chapter 8. Sobolev Spaces and the Variational Formulation of Boundary Value Problems in One Dimension

Chapter 9. Sobolev Spaces and the Variational Formulation of Elliptic Boundary Value Problems in N Dimensions
Abstract
Let \(\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N.\) be an open set and let \(P\in\mathbb{R}\) with \(1 \le p \le \infty .\)

Chapter 10. Evolution Problems: The Heat Equation and the Wave Equation
Haim Brezis
Chapter 11. Miscellaneous Complements
Abstract
This chapter contains various complements that have not been incorporated in the main body of the book in order to keep the presentation more compact. They are connected to Chapters 1–7. Some of the proofs are very sketchy. Several proofs have been omitted, and the interested reader is invited to consult the references.
