List of mathematic operators

From HandWiki
Short description: none

In mathematics, an operator or transform is a function from one space of functions to another. Operators occur commonly in engineering, physics and mathematics. Many are integral operators and differential operators.

In the following L is an operator

[math]\displaystyle{ L:\mathcal{F}\to\mathcal{G} }[/math]

which takes a function [math]\displaystyle{ y\in\mathcal{F} }[/math] to another function [math]\displaystyle{ L[y]\in\mathcal{G} }[/math]. Here, [math]\displaystyle{ \mathcal{F} }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ \mathcal{G} }[/math] are some unspecified function spaces, such as Hardy space, Lp space, Sobolev space, or, more vaguely, the space of holomorphic functions.
