Definition talk:Bilinear Functional

"Let $ y_1$, $ y_2$, $ z$ be mappings, belonging to some normed linear space." Does this mean that the linear space in question is some space of mappings? This has to be made much more precise, it's not clear at all whether e.g. this coincides with the definition of bilinear forms in linear algebra. --barto (talk) 11:37, 30 April 2017 (EDT)


 * Indeed this definition should be improved. The context of this definition was calculus of variations, hence function space is the most probable candidate, although the statement in question is a quote from the source, and I am not experienced enough to narrow down or expand the definition to required rigour yet.

 * Okay. If we can't tell what it is about precisely, it's very hard to integrate your work with the existing pages. It would be very nice if you managed to make everything transparent you find in this book, which, as it seems, may indeed do well with some clarification. Good luck! --barto (talk) 14:44, 30 April 2017 (EDT)
