Index of spaces
Using the index
People might use i or j or even k for indicies, as such "numbers" are indexed as "num" (notice the lower-case) so a space like Ck is under C_num.
We do subscripts first, so A2i would be under A _num ^num:2
When breaking up a term into its index key, spaces delimit the blocks, for example L21 becomes L _num:1 ^num:2 (the subscript comes first, we sort by subscript, then by superscript)
+ is used to extend the index keys, for example C1,2 would become C _num:1+num:2 and the +s are ordered lexicographically.
If there are multiple variable numbers (for example the i and j in Bji) we use num for each of them. Even if they're the same (eg both is or something) - while not ideal the index should be small enough (when you've got a leading letter) that you do not need any further granularity.
* denotes objects, so for example say in L(X,Y) (where X and Y are objects (vector spaces, or Banach spaces... ) we use the key obj for these. So L(X,Y) becomes L ( obj obj )
Ordering
- First come actual numbers.
- Next come num terms.
- Then come infty (which denotes ∞
- Then comes objects
- Then come letters (upper case - shown as non-italic uppercase in the index)
- Then come letters (lower-case - shown as capital italics in the index)
- Then come special lowercase letters (shown as capital italics again in the index, with a ! prefixing the name.
- Then come brackets ( first, then [ then {
- Then comes subscript, then comes superscript.
For example C0 comes before Ci comes before C∞ comes before Ctext.
The space ℓ2 is !L _num:2, and l2 is L _num:2 which comes before ℓ2
Index
Space or name | Index | Type | Argument types | Context | Meaning |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Ck on U | C _num ON obj | Class | U - open set of Rn |
|
(SEE Classes of continuously differentiable functions) - a function is Ck on U if U⊂Rn is open and the partial derivatives of f:U→Rm of all orders (up to and including k) are continuous on U |
Ck(U) | C _num ( obj ) | Class | U - open set of Rn |
|
(SEE Classes of continuously differentiable functions) - denotes a set, given U⊆Rn (that's open) f∈Ck(U) if f:U→R has continuous partial derivatives of all orders up to and including k on U |
L(X,Y) | L ( obj obj ) | Normed vector space | X, Y - normed vector spaces |
|
It's the Space of all continuous linear functions between two normed vector spaces and it itself is a normed vector space. Warning:I'm not sure if this differs or is universal, there can be discontinuous linear maps between spaces, however another book tells me L(V,W) denotes all linear maps between L and W - this needs investigation |
l2 | L _num:2 | inner product space |
|
Space of square-summable sequences |
