Definition
Let $\GF$ be a subfield of $\C$.
Let $I$ be a set.
Let $\map {\ell^2} I$ be the space of square summable mappings over $I$.
The inner product on $\map {\ell^2} I$ is the complex inner product $\innerprod \cdot \cdot: \map {\ell^2} I \times \map {\ell^2} I \to \GF$ defined by:
- $\ds \forall f, g \in \map {\ell^2} I: \innerprod f g = \sum_{i \mathop \in I} \map f i \overline{ \map g i }$
