Abstract

In this chapter we will extend functional calculus to families of commuting self-adjoint operators. As an application of this extension we will be able to introduce in Sect. 7.4 functional calculus for normal operators. This will be the only part of the book in which we will require some results of the theory of Banach algebras, or more specifically, C-algebras. These have been gathered in Appendix A.5.
