Abstract:
The two Hilbert spaces ${H_0}$ and ${H_1}$ are defined to be a generating pair if ${H_1}$ is a dense subspace of ${H_0}$ and if the norm of an element in ${H_1}$ is greater than or equal to the norm in ${H_0}$. It is shown that the pair generates a sequence of spaces $\{ {H_k}\}, - \infty < k < \infty$, such that any two spaces of the sequence form again a generating pair. Such a pair is shown to generate, in turn, a subsequence of $\{ {H_k}\}$. Also, representation theorems are derived for bounded linear functionals over the spaces of the sequence $\{ {H_k}\}$, generalizing the Lax representation theorem and the Lax-Milgram theorem.References
