1. The document examines Banach and Hilbert spaces. It defines the set of convergent series in R, proves it is a normed space, and shows a dense subspace is equivalent to the norm. 2. It computes the Fourier series of a cosine function and derives an identity. It uses integration to prove another identity for small values and deduces Wallis' product formula. 3. For a Hilbert space H and bounded linear operator T, it proves T*T=TT* and properties about T being 0 or self-adjoint, including a counterexample about dropping a condition.

For (xn )n cs, dene:

Prove that 1 (as a set) is a dense subspace of cs. (c) On 1 , we can place the norms cs and also

(b) If T = 0 and if T is self-adjoint, then T n = 0 for all n N. (c) If T = 0 and if T T = T T , then T n = 0 for all n N. (d) Does (c) still hold if we drop the condition that T T = T T ? Prove or give a counterexample. 4. Dene the linear operator T :
