Abstract
In this chapter, the term “linear space” will be used as a shorthand for “linear space over the real field ℝ”. (Actually, many definitions remain meaningful and many results remain valid when ℝ is replaced by an arbitrary field. The interested reader will be able to decide for himself when this is the case.)
