On complete-cocomplete subspaces of an inner product space

David Buhagiar, Emmanuel Chetcuti (2005)

Applications of Mathematics

In this note we give a measure-theoretic criterion for the completeness of an inner product space. We show that an inner product space S is complete if and only if there exists a σ -additive state on C ( S ) , the orthomodular poset of complete-cocomplete subspaces of S . We then consider the problem of whether every state on E ( S ) , the class of splitting subspaces of S , can be extended to a Hilbertian state on E ( S ¯ ) ; we show that for the dense hyperplane S (of a separable Hilbert space) constructed by P. Pták and...

On the angles between certain arithmetically defined subspaces of 𝐂 n

Robert Brooks (1987)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

If { v i } and { w j } are two families of unitary bases for C n , and θ is a fixed number, let V n and W n be subspaces of C n spanned by [ θ · n ] vectors in { v i } and { w j } respectively. We study the angle between V n and W n as n goes to infinity. We show that when { v i } and { w j } arise in certain arithmetically defined families, the angles between V n and W n may either tend to 0 or be bounded away from zero, depending on the behavior of an associated eigenvalue problem.
