Talk:Spectrum of Self-Adjoint Bounded Linear Operator is Real and Closed

We seem to have chosen the term "Hermitian" for self-adjoint bounded linear operators. Caliburn (talk) 12:56, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Can you elaborate, please? I cannot get your point. --Usagiop (talk) 00:21, 25 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I think what Caliburn means is that we can simplify the wordage of this and its title by referring to "Hermitian operator" instead of "self-adjoint bounded linear operator", which would indeed improve reality. --prime mover (talk) 08:58, 25 February 2023 (UTC)


 * OK, Caliburn, do you also want to call self-adjoint densely-defined linear operators densely-defined Hamiltonian operators? --Usagiop (talk) 11:03, 25 February 2023 (UTC)


 * I would prefer we call it all self-adjoint. But since Hermitian is what came first, Hermitian is what it should be from here. Wikipedia also calls bounded self-adjoint operators "Hermitian" and general self-adjoint operators to be self-adjoint, so it's not unusual. Caliburn (talk) 12:25, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
