Recommended literature

The lecture notes available (here, to be completed) form the basic source.


The literature recommended in SIS is the following:
[1] Rudin, W.: Functional analysis. Second edition, McGraw-Hill, Inc., New York, 1991
[2] M.Fabian et al.: Banach Space Theory, Springer 2011
[3] J.Diestel and J.J.Uhl: Vector measures, Mathematical Surveys and Monongraphs 15, American Mathematical Society 1977
[4] R.R.Ryan: Introduction to tensor products of Banach spaces, Springer 2002
[5] Meise R. and Vogt D. : Introduction to functional analysis, Oxford University Press, New York, 1997


More precisely:

The first topic, i.e., topological vector spaces and weak topologies approximately corresponds to Chapters 1-3 of [1]. This is not exact, the book contains some additional material (for example, Chapter 2 is presented in a more general setting) and, conversely, something is only briefly mentioned (polar calculus). One can also use Chapter 3 of the book [2].


The second topic, elements of vector integration, is addressed for example in sections III.1-III.3 of [3] Another approach can be found for example in the book [4], in sections 2.3 and 3.3.


The third topic, i.e., Banach algebras and spectral theory, approximately corresponds to Chapters 10-12 of [1]; Chapters 17 and 18 of [5] are related as well.
