The theory of Hilbert spaces was initiated by David Hilbert (1862–1943) in his
1912 work on quadratic forms in infinitelymany variables, which he applied to
the theory of integral equations. He published a series of papers on the subject
during 1904–1910 and formulated the theory of the space l2 (square summable
sequences) in connection with integral equations. The idea of the l2-space and
the spectral theory of bounded quadratic forms were published in 1906. All
these papers were reproduced in the form of a book entitled Grundzüge einer
allgemeinen Theorie der linearen Integralgleichungen in 1912. The book had a
tremendous influence on mathematical analysis and its applications.
Years later, John von Neumann (1903–1957) first formulated an axiomatic
theory of Hilbert spaces and developed the modern theory of operators on
Hilbert spaces. His remarkable contribution to this area has provided the
mathematical foundation of quantum mechanics. Von Neumann’s work has
also provided a physical interpretation of quantum mechanics in terms of abstract
relations in an infinite dimensional Hilbert space.
This course is concerned with Spectral theory of Hilbert spaces. The basic ideas and properties
will be discussed with special attention given to pre-Hilbert spaces, orthonormal systems and operator theory. The
theory is illustrated by numerous examples.

Objective:
The major purposes of this course are to provide the students with the opportunity to explore international relations in a variety of ways, and to familiarize them with the major theoretical traditions, which explain the world politics. It would enable the students to grasp the main themes of the theories that have been most influential over the past two centuries. It would also explain the recent theoretical work in world politics by providing an up-to-date survey of the foundational and anti-foundational theoretical literature. Thus the learners will be able to understand the main themes of the various theories and be able to assess their comparative strengths and weaknesses.

Functional analysis plays a vital role in the applied sciences as well as mathematics itself. The functional analytical results have important applications in various fields, for example, linear algebra, ordinary partial differential equations, partial differential equations, calculus of variation, approximation theory and particular in linear integral equations. The aim of this course is to extend the methods of linear algebra and analysis to spaces of functions. In which the interaction between algebra and analysis allows powerful methods to be developed.

Functional analysis plays a vital role in the applied sciences as well as mathematics itself. The functional analytical results have important applications in various fields, for example, linear algebra, ordinary partial differential equations, partial differential equations, calculus of variation, approximation theory and particular in linear integral equations. The aim of this course is to extend the methods of linear algebra and analysis to spaces of functions. In which the interaction between algebra and analysis allows powerful methods to be developed.

Research Methodology
The aim of this course is to familiarize the students with:
i) The philosophy of science (on which research methodology is based
ii) Methods of social science research
iii) The presentation of results (writing of research reports, papers, dissertations and onographs)
The Philosophy of Science:
The following subjects will be introduced:
a) Rationalism-Deductive and inductive logic
b) Empiricism-Criticism on empiricism
c) Positivism-Compete and the early positivists
d) Logical positivism-Vienna circle and modifications
e) The concepts of Weber, Russel, Wittgenstein, Popper and Kuhn
f) Beyond positivism–relativism-post-modernist approaches
g) Epistemology and the nature of the social sciences
h) Research perspectives such as realism and grounded research theory
Marxism, feminism, the role of positivism in research and other relevant theoretical perspectives for social science research etc. etc.
Methods of Social Sciences Research:
a) Research design and preliminary steps towards research
b) Observation
c) Hypothesis formation
d) Operationalization – variables
e) Verification - validity
f) Questionnaires, schedules and interviews
g) Sampling - random and non-random sampling
h) Book Review
i) The use of primary and secondary sources in research
j) Ethnographic research methods
k) Focused Group Discussion (FGD)
The Presentation of Results:
a) Results may be presented in the form of research reports, papers, discussions, monographs and books. Students will be taught the basic principles of writing research report and papers under the following heads. Literature survey; clear exposition of the research problem, hypothesis, Research Questions, Review of Literature, Research Objectives, operational definition; preparation of research proposal, the language of research reports; some dos and don’ts of research writing; the endnote/footnote methods of documentation; the author-date method of documentation; how to prepare a bibliography, proofreading and editing.
b) Statistical Methods: Statistical methods to determine the variability and cohesion of data; to test hypotheses using tests of significance; to determine the sample size given other necessary variables; to estimate sampling error at 90, 95 and 99 per cent confidence levels.
