Abstract

In the present chapter, we will consider the spectral theorem for bounded self-adjoint operators, leaving a discussion of unbounded operators to Chaps. 9 and 10. The proofs of the main theorems (two different versions of the spectral theorem) are moderately long and are deferred to Chap. 8.
