HodgeStarOperator - crowlogic/arb4j GitHub Wiki

The Hodge star operator is indirectly related to Hilbert spaces in the following way:

• Differential forms: The Hodge star operates on differential forms, which are objects in differential geometry.
• L^2 spaces: Differential forms can be integrated over manifolds. The square-integrable differential forms form a Hilbert space, known as an L^2 space.
• Inner products: The Hodge star helps define an inner product on the space of differential forms. This inner product is crucial for turning the L^2 space of differential forms into a Hilbert space. In essence, the Hodge star operator plays a supporting role in constructing Hilbert spaces of differential forms by facilitating the definition of an inner product.
