Let $\catc$ be a category with a notion of embedding and $X \in \obj(\catc)$, then an \textbf{extension} of $X$ is a pair $(Y, \iota)$ where $Y \in \obj(\catc)$ and $\iota: X \to Y$ is an embedding.

\section{Measurable Recurrence}
\label{section:measure-recurrence}
\begin{theorem}[Poincaré Recurrence]
\label{theorem:pointcare-recurrence}
Let $(\Omega, \cf, \bp)$ be a probability space, $T: \Omega \to \Omega$ be an automorphism, and $A \in \cf$, then $\bracsn{n \in \natp|T^n\omega \in A}$ is infinite for almost every $\omega \in A$.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
Let $W = \bracsn{\omega \in A| T^n\omega \not\in A \forall n \in \natp}$. Since $W \subset A$, $T^nW \cap W = \emptyset$ for all $\in \natp$. Thus $\bracsn{T^nW}_0^\infty \subset \cf$ is pairwise disjoint. As $T$ is probability measure preserving,
\[
1 \ge \bp\paren{\bigsqcup_{n \in \natz}T^nW} = \sum_{n \in \natz}\bp(T^nW) = \sum_{n \in \natz}\bp(W)
\]
so $\bp(W) = 0$.
Let $E = \bracsn{\omega \in A|T^n\omega \in A \text{ finitely many times}}$, then for each $\omega \in E$, there exists $n_\omega \in \natp$ such that $T^{n_\omega}\omega \in W$. In other words, $E \subset \bigcup_{k \in \natp} T^{-k}W$, and $E$ is also null. Since $\bracsn{n \in \natp|T^n\omega \in A}$ is infinite for all $\omega \in A \setminus E$, $\bracsn{n \in \natp|T^n\omega \in A}$ is infinite for almost every $\omega \in A$.
\end{proof}
\begin{corollary}
\label{corollary:measure-set-recurrence}
Let $(\Omega, \cf, \bp)$ be a probability space, $T: \Omega \to \Omega$ be an automorphism, and $A \in \cf$ with $\bp(A) > 0$, then there exists $n \in \natp$ such that $\bp(A \cap T^{-n}A) > 0$.
\end{corollary}
\begin{proof}
By the \hyperref[Poincaré Recurrence Theorem]{theorem:pointcare-recurrence}, $A \subset \bigcup_{n \in \natp}A \cap T^{-n}A$. Since $\bp(A) > 0$, \hyperref[subadditivity]{proposition:measure-properties}, there exists $n \in \natp$ with $\bp(A \cap T^{-n}A) > 0$.

\begin{definition}[Koopman Representation]
\label{definition:koopman-representation}
Let $\Gamma$ be a group acting on a measure space $(X, \cm, \mu)$, then the unitary representation
\[
\pi: \Gamma \to U(B(L^2(X, \cm, \mu; \complex))) \quad \pi(\gamma)(f) = f \circ \gamma
\]

Let $\Gamma$ be a group acting on a measure space $(X, \cm, \mu)$ and $\pi: \Gamma \to U(B(L^2(X, \cm, \mu; \complex)))$ be its Koopman representation, then the subspace
\[
\text{Fix}(\Gamma) = \bracsn{f \in L^2(X, \cm, \mu; \complex)| \pi(\gamma) f = f \forall \gamma \in \Gamma}
\]
is equal to $\complex \one$ if and only if the action of $\Gamma$ is ergodic.
\end{proposition}
\begin{definition}[Averaging Operator]
\label{definition:ergodic-averaging-operator}
Let $(X, \cm, \mu)$ be a measure space, $T: X \to X$ be an automorphism, $E$ be a Banach space, $p \in [1, \infty]$, and $N \in \natp$, then the \textbf{$N$-th time averaging operator} is the mapping
\[
A_N: L^p(X; E) \to L^p(X; E) \quad A_Nf = \frac{1}{N}\sum_{n = 0}^{N-1} f \circ T^n
\]
which is a contraction on $L^p(X; E)$.
\end{definition}
\begin{theorem}[von Neumann's Mean Ergodic Theorem]
\label{theorem:vn-mean-ergodic}
Let $H$ be a Hilbert space, $U: H \to H$ be a unitary operator, $P \in B(H)$ be the orthogonal projection onto the fixed points of $U$. For each $N \in \natp$, let
\[
A_N: H \to H \quad \xi \mapsto \frac{1}{N}\sum_{n = 0}^{N-1} U^n\xi
\]
be the $N$-th time averaging operator. Then, for each $\xi \in H$, $P\xi = \slim_{N \to \infty}A_N\xi$.

\begin{lemma}
\label{lemma:vna-convolver-commute}
Let $(M, \tau)$ be a tracial von Neumann algebra, then for each $\xi \in LC(M)$ and $\eta \in RC(M)$, $L_\xi R_\eta = R_\eta L_\xi$.
\end{lemma}
\begin{proof}
First suppose that $\xi, \eta \in M$. In which case, for each $x, y \in M$,
\[
\dpn{L_\xi R_\eta \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)} = \dpn{\wh{\xi x \eta}, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)} = \dpn{R_\eta L_\xi \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)}
\]
Now suppose that $\xi \in M$, then for each $\eta \in RC(M)$, by the \hyperref[Cauchy-Schwarz inequality]{proposition:cauchy-schwarz},
\begin{align*}
|\dpn{L_\xi R_\eta \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)}| &\le \norm{L_\xi}_{B(L^2(M, \tau))} \norm{x}_M \norm{y}_M \cdot \norm{\eta}_{L^2(M, \tau)} \\
|\dpn{R_\eta L_\xi \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)}| &\le \norm{x}_M \norm{\xi}_M\norm{y}_M \cdot \norm{\eta}_{L^2(M, \tau)}
\end{align*}
so by density of $\wh M$ in $L^2(M, \tau)$, $\dpn{L_\xi R_\eta \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)} = \dpn{R_\eta L_\xi \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)}$ for all $\xi \in M$ and $\eta \in RC(M)$.
Finally, suppose that $\xi \in LC(M)$ and $\eta \in RC(M)$, then for each $z \in M$,
\begin{align*}
\dpn{L_\xi z, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)} &= \dpn{\xi z, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)} = \dpn{\xi, \wh y z^*}{L^2(M, \tau)} \\
&= \dpn{\xi, \wh y J\wh z}{L^2(M, \tau)} = \dpn{y^*\xi, J\wh z}{L^2(M, \tau)} = \dpn{\wh z, Jy^*\xi}{L^2(M, \tau)}
\end{align*}
so
\begin{align*}
\dpn{L_\xi R_\eta \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)} &= \dpn{L_\xi (x \eta), \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)} = \dpn{x \eta, J y^* \xi}{L^2(M, \tau)} \\
|\dpn{L_\xi R_\eta \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)}| &\le \norm{x \eta}_{L^2(M, \tau)} \norm{y}_M \cdot \norm{\xi}_{L^2(M, \tau)}\\
|\dpn{R_\eta L_\xi \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)}| &\le \norm{R_\eta}_{B(L^2(M, \tau))} \norm{x}_M \norm{y}_M \cdot \norm{\xi}_{L^2(M, \tau)}
\end{align*}
By density of $\wh M$ in $L^2(M, \tau)$, $\dpn{L_\xi R_\eta \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)} = \dpn{R_\eta L_\xi \wh x, \wh y}{L^2(M, \tau)}$ for all $\xi \in LC(M)$ and $\eta \in RC(M)$.
\end{proof}
\begin{theorem}
\label{theorem:vna-convolver-identified}
Let $(M, \tau)$ be a tracial von Neumann algebra, then:
\begin{enumerate}
\item $L(M) = LC(M) = R(M)'$.
\item $JL(M)J = R(M) = RC(M) = L(M)'$.
\item In particular, for each $\xi \in L^2(M, \tau)$, $L_\xi \in B(L^2(M, \tau))$ if and only if $\xi \in \wh M$.
\end{enumerate}
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
(1): By definition, $L(M) \subset LC(M)$. By \autoref{lemma:vna-convolver-commute}, $LC(M) \subset RC(M)'$, so
\[
L(M) \subset LC(M) \subset RC(M)' \subset R(M)'
\]
and
\[
R(M) \subset RC(M) \subset LC(M)' \subset L(M)'
\]
Using the \hyperref[Bicommutant Theorem]{theorem:bicommutant}, it remains to show that $R(M)' \subset LC(M)$. To this end, let $T \in R(M)'$ and $\xi = T \wh 1$, then for each $x \in M$,
\[
T\wh x = TR_x \wh 1 = R_x T \wh 1 = R_x \xi = \xi x = L_\xi^0 \wh x
\]
so $T|_{\wh M} = L_\xi^0$. By density of $\wh M$ in $L^2(M, \tau)$ and continuity of $T$, the closure of $L_\xi^0$ is $T$, hence $T = L_\xi$.

\section{Unbounded Functional Calculus}
\label{section:unbounded-functional-calculus}
\begin{definition}[Closed]
\label{definition:unbounded-closed}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a linear operator, then $T$ is \textbf{closed} if its graph
\[
\Gamma(T) = \bracsn{(x, y) \in D(T) \times H| Tx = y}
\]
is a closed subspace of $H \times H$.
The operator $T$ is \textbf{closable} if it admits a closed extension $S \supset T$.
\end{definition}
\begin{definition}[Adjoint]
\label{definition:unbounded-adjoint}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a densely defined linear operator,
\[
D(T^*) = \bracsn{\xi \in H| (\eta \mapsto \dpn{\xi, T\eta}{H}) \text{ is bounded on }D(T)}
\]
and\footnote{$\eta$ sampled from $D(T)$.}
\[
T^*: D(T^*) \to H \quad \dpn{T^*\xi, \eta}{H} = \dpn{\xi, T\eta}{H}
\]
then $T^*$ is a closed operator, known as the \textbf{adjoint} of $T$.
\end{definition}
\begin{proof}
Let $\seq{\xi_n} \subset D(T^*)$ and $\xi, \eta \in H$ such that $\xi_n \to \xi$ and $T^*\xi_n \to \eta$, then for any $\theta \in D(T)$,
\[
\dpn{\eta, \theta}{H} = \limv{n}\dpn{T^*\xi_n, \theta}{H} = \limv{n}\dpn{\xi_n, T\theta}{H} = \dpn{\xi, T\theta}{H}
\]
As $D(T)$ is dense, $T \circ \xi \in D(T)^*$, and $\eta = T^*\xi$. Thus the graph of $T^*$ is closed.
\end{proof}
\begin{definition}[Self-Adjoint]
\label{definition:unbounded-self-adjoint}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a densely defined linear operator, then $T$ is \textbf{self-adjoint} if $D(T) = D(T^*)$\footnote{Written out to emphasise.} and $T = T^*$.
\end{definition}
\begin{lemma}
\label{lemma:cayley-transform-unbounded}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a densely defined, self-adjoint operator, then:
\begin{enumerate}
\item For any $\xi \in D(T)$,
\[
\norm{(T \pm i)\xi}_H^2 = \norm{T\xi}_H^2 + \norm{\xi}_H^2 \ge \norm{\xi}_H^2
\]
In particular, $T \pm i$ is injective.
\item $(T \pm i)(H) = H$.
\end{enumerate}
In other words, $(T \pm i)$ is bijective onto $H$.
\end{lemma}
\begin{proof}
(1): For any $\xi \in D(T)$,
\begin{align*}
\normn{(T + i)\xi}_H^2 &= \norm{T\xi}_H^2 + \norm{\xi}_H^2 + \dpn{T\xi, i\xi}{H} + \dpn{i\xi, T\xi}{H} \\
&= \norm{T\xi}_H^2 + \norm{\xi}_H^2 + i\dpn{T\xi, \xi}{H} -i \dpn{\xi, T\xi}{H} \\
&= \norm{T\xi}_H^2 + \norm{\xi}_H^2 \ge \normn{\xi}_H^2
\end{align*}
(2, closed range): For any $\seq{\xi_n} \subset D(T)$ and $\eta \in H$ with $(T + i)\xi_n \to \eta$, (1) implies that $\seq{\xi_n} \subset D(T)$ and $\seq{T\xi_n}$ are both Cauchy. Let $\xi = \limv{n}\xi_n$, then since $T$ is self-adjoint, it is closed, so $T\xi = \limv{n}T\xi_n \in T(H)$, and $\eta = (T + i)\xi \in (T+i)(H)$.
(2, dense range): Let $\eta \in H$, then the following are equivalent:
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\alph*)]
\item $\eta \perp (T + i)(H)$.
\item $\dpn{T\xi, \eta}{H} = \dpn{\xi, i\eta}{H}$ for all $\xi \in D(T)$.
\item $\eta \in D(T^*)$ with $T^*\eta = i\eta$.
\item $\eta \in D(T)$ with $(T - i)\eta = 0$.
\end{enumerate}
By (1), $\eta \perp (T+i)(H)$ if and only if $\eta = 0$.
\end{proof}
\begin{definition}[Cayley Transform]
\label{definition:unbounded-cayley-transform}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a densely defined, self-adjoint operator, then
\[
U(T): H \to H \quad U(T) = (T - i)(T + i)^{-1}
\]
is a unitary operator, known as the \textbf{Cayley transform} of $T$.
\end{definition}
\begin{proof}
By \autoref{lemma:cayley-transform-unbounded}, $(T+i)^{-1}: H \to D(T)$ and $(T - i): D(T) \to H$ are well-defined linear bijections, so $U(T)$ is a well-defined linear isomorphism. For any $\xi \in D(T)$, (1) of \autoref{lemma:cayley-transform-unbounded} implies that $\norm{(T + i)\xi}_H = \norm{(T - i)\xi}_H$. As $(T+i)^{-1}$ and $(T - i)$ are both bijections, $U(T)$ is an isometry. Therefore $U(T)$ is unitary.
\end{proof}
\begin{definition}[Unbounded Integration Against Spectral Measure]
\label{definition:unbounded-spectral-integral}
Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space, $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $E: \cb_X \to B(H)$ be a spectral measure relative to $H$. For each Borel measurable function $f: X \to \complex$, let
\[
D\paren{\int_X f dE} = \bracs{\xi \in H \bigg | \int_X |f|^2 dE_{\xi, \xi} < \infty}
\]
and
\[
\int_X f dE: D\paren{\int_X f dE} \to H \quad \angles{\int_X fdE \xi, \eta}_H = \int_X f dE_{\xi, \eta}
\]
Then,
\begin{enumerate}
\item $\int_X f dE: D(\int_Xf dE) \to H$ is a densely defined linear operator.
\item For any Borel measurable functions $f, g: X \to \complex$,
\[
D\paren{\int_X f dE \int_X g dE} = D\paren{\int_X g dE} \cap D\paren{\int_X fg dE}
\]
and $\int_X f dE \int_X g dE = \int_X fg dE$.
\item For any Borel measurable function $f: X \to \complex$, $(\int_X f dE)^* = \int_X \ol f dE$. In particular, $\int_X f dE$ is always closed.
\end{enumerate}
\end{definition}
\begin{proof}
(1): For each $n \in \natp$, $\one_{\bracsn{f \le n}}f \in B^\infty(X; \complex)$. Thus for each $\xi \in H$, by a monotone class argument,
\begin{align*}
\int_X |f|^2 dE_{E(\bracsn{f \le n})\xi, E(\bracsn{f \le n})\xi} &= \int_{\bracsn{f \le n}}|f|^2 dE_{\xi, \xi} < \infty \\
\normn{\xi - E(\bracsn{f \le n})\xi}_H^2 &= \normn{E(\bracsn{f > n})\xi}_H^2
\end{align*}
where by \hyperref[continuity from above]{proposition:measure-properties}, $E(\bracsn{f > n})\xi \to 0$ as $n \to \infty$. Therefore $D(\int_X f dE)$ is dense in $H$.
It remains to show that $\int_X f dE$ is defined on the claimed domain. Let $\xi \in D(\int_X f dE)$, $\eta \in H$, and $B \in \cb_X$, then by (1) and (3) of \autoref{lemma:spectral-measure-properties},
\[
\int_X \one_B d|E_{\xi, \eta}| \le E_{\xi, \xi}(B)^{1/2}E_{\eta, \eta}(B)^{1/2}
\]
For any $\phi \in \Sigma(X; \complex)$, by the \hyperref[Cauchy-Schwarz inequality]{proposition:cauchy-schwarz},
\begin{align*}
\int_X |\phi| d|E_{\xi, \eta}| &\le \norm{\eta}_H\sum_{\alpha \in \phi(X)} |\alpha| E_{\xi, \xi}(\bracsn{\phi = \alpha})^{1/2}E_{\eta, \eta}(\bracsn{\phi = \alpha})^{1/2} \\
&\le \norm{\eta}_H\braks{\int_X |\phi|^2 dE_{\xi, \xi}}^{1/2}
\end{align*}
By the \hyperref[Monotone Convergence Theorem]{theorem:mct},
\[
\int_X |f| d|E_{\xi, \eta}| \le \norm{\eta}_H \braks{\int_X |f|^2 dE_{\xi, \xi}}^{1/2}
\]
so $\int_X f dE \xi \in H$ is well-defined.
(2): For each $\xi \in D(\int_X g dE)$, by a monotone class argument,
\[
\int_X |fg|^2 dE_{\xi, \xi} = \int_X |f|^2 |g|^2 dE_{\xi, \xi} = \int_X |f|^2 dE_{\int_X gdE\xi, \int_X gdE\xi}
\]
so $\int_X g dE \xi \in D(\int_X f dE)$ if and only if $\xi \in D(\int_X fg dE)$, and
\[
D\paren{\int_X f dE \int_X g dE} = D\paren{\int_X g dE} \cap D\paren{\int_X fg dE}
\]
Let $\xi \in D(\int_X g dE) \cap D(\int_X fg dE)$ and $\eta \in H$, then
\begin{align*}
\angles{\int_X f dE \int_X g dE \xi, \eta}_H &= \int_X f dE_{\int_X g dE \xi, \eta} = \int_X fg dE_{\xi, \eta} \\
&= \angles{\int_X f g dE \xi, \eta}_H
\end{align*}
(3): For any $\xi, \eta \in D(\int_X f dE) = D(\int_X \ol f dE)$,
\begin{align*}
\angles{\int_X f dE\xi, \eta}_H &= \int_X f dE_{\xi, \eta} = \ol{\int_X \ol f dE_{\eta, \xi}} \\
&= \ol{\dpn{\int_X \ol f dE\eta, \xi}H} = \dpn{\xi, \int_X \ol f dE \eta}{H}
\end{align*}
so $\int_X \ol f dE \subset (\int_X f dE)^*$. On the other hand, for each $\xi \in H$ and $\eta \in D[(\int_X f dE)^*]$, by the \hyperref[bounded $L^\infty$ functional calculus]{definition:linfty-functional-calculus} and (2),
\begin{align*}
\angles{\xi, \int_X \frac{\ol f}{1 + |f|} dE\eta}_H &= \angles{\int_X \frac{f}{1 + |f|} dE\xi, \eta}_H \\
&= \angles{\int_X f dE \int_X (1 + |f|)^{-1}dE\xi, \eta}_H \\
&= \angles{ \int_X (1 + |f|)^{-1}dE\xi, \paren{\int_X f dE}^{*}\eta}_H \\
&= \angles{\xi, \int_X (1 + |f|)^{-1}dE\paren{\int_X f dE}^{*}\eta}_H \\
\end{align*}
so
\[
\int_X \frac{\ol f}{1 + |f|} dE = \int_X (1 + |f|)^{-1}dE\paren{\int_X f dE}^{*}
\]
By (2) and multiplication of $\int_X (1 + |f|) dE$ from the left, $\int_X \ol f dE = \paren{\int_X f dE}^{*}$.
\end{proof}
\begin{theorem}[Spectral Theorem I (Unbounded)]
\label{theorem:spectral-theorem-1-unbounded}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space and $T: D(T) \to H$ be a densely defined, self-adjoint operator, then there exists a unique spectral measure $E: \cb_\real \to B(H)$ such that $T = \int_{\real} \lambda E(d\lambda)$.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
Let $U(T) = (T - i)(T + i)^{-1} \in U(B(H))$ be the Cayley transform of $T$, then $U(T)$ is unitary. By \hyperref[Spectral Theorem I]{theorem:spectral-theorem-vn-1}, there exists a unique spectral measure $E: \cb_{\partial B_\complex(0, 1)} \to B(H)$ such that $U(T) = \int_{\partial B_\complex(0, 1)} \lambda E(d\lambda)$. Moreover,
\[
(I - U) = (T+i)(T+i)^{-1} - (T - i)(T+i)^{-1} = 2i(T + i)^{-1}
\]
is injective, so $1$ is not an eigenvalue of $U$, and $E(\bracsn{1}) = 0$. Let

\phi: \partial B_\complex(0, 1) \setminus \bracsn{1} \to \real \quad \lambda \mapsto i\frac{1 + \lambda}{1 - \lambda}
\]
then the pushforward $F = \phi_* E$ defined by $F(B) = E(\phi^{-1}(B))$ is also a spectral measure, with
\begin{align*}
\int_\real \lambda F(d\lambda) &= \int_{\partial B_\complex(0, 1) \setminus \bracsn{1}} i\frac{1 + \lambda}{1 - \lambda} E(d\lambda) = i(1 + U)(1 - U)^{-1} \\
&= i[(T + i)(T+i)^{-1} + (T-i)(T+i)^{-1}] \cdot (2i(T + i)^{-1})^{-1} \\
&= \frac{1}{2}[(T + i)(T+i)^{-1}(T+i) + (T-i)(T+i)^{-1}(T+i)] = T
\end{align*}
\end{proof}
\begin{lemma}
\label{lemma:closed-unbonuded-adjoint}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a densely defined linear operator, and
\[
\Gamma(T) = \bracsn{(\xi, T\xi)|\xi \in D(T)} \subset H \oplus H
\]
be the graph of $T$, then:
\begin{enumerate}
\item $\Gamma(T)^\perp = \bracsn{(-T^*\eta, \eta)| \eta \in D(T^*)}$.
\item If $T$ is closed, then the mapping $I + T^*T: D(T^*T) \to H$ is surjective.
\end{enumerate}
\end{lemma}
\begin{proof}
(1): Let $\Gamma(T) = \bracsn{(\xi, T\xi)| \xi \in D(T)}$ be the graph of $T$, then for any $(\xi, \eta) \in H \oplus H$, the following are equivalent:
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\item $(\xi, \eta) \perp \Gamma(T)$.
\item For each $\theta \in D(T)$, $\dpn{\eta, T\theta}{H} = -\dpn{\xi, \theta}{H}$.
\item $\eta \in D(T^*)$, with $\dpn{T^*\eta, \theta}{H} = -\dpn{\xi, \theta}{H}$ for all $\theta \in H$.
\item $\eta \in D(T^*)$ with $\xi = -T^*\eta$.
\end{enumerate}
so $\Gamma(T)^\perp = \bracsn{(-T^*\eta, \eta)| \eta \in D(T^*)}$.
(2): Given that $T$ is closed, $H \oplus H = \Gamma(T) \oplus \Gamma(T)^\perp$. In particular, for each $\theta \in H$, there exists $\xi \in D(T)$ and $\eta \in D(T^*)$ such that
\[
(\theta, 0) = (\xi, T\xi) + (-T^*\eta, \eta)
\]
In which case, $T\xi = -\eta \in D(T^*)$, so $\xi \in D(T^*T)$ with
\[
\theta = \xi - T^*\eta = \xi + T^*T\xi
\]
so $I + T^*T: D(T^*T) \to H$ is surjective.
\end{proof}
\begin{theorem}[von Neumann]
\label{theorem:von-neumann-closed-operator}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a closed, densely defined linear operator, then $T^*T: D(T^*T) \to H$ is a densely defined, self-adjoint, and positive operator.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
For each $\xi, \eta \in D(T^*T)$, by definition of the adjoint,
\[
\dpn{T^*T\xi, \eta}{H} = \dpn{T\xi, T\eta}{H} = \dpn{\xi, T^*T\eta}{H}
\]
(Densely Defined): Let $\eta \in D(T^*T)^\perp$. By (2) of \autoref{lemma:closed-unbonuded-adjoint}, there exists $\xi \in D(T^*T)$ such that $\eta = \xi + T^*T\xi$. In which case,
\[
0 = \dpn{\xi, \eta}{H} = \dpn{\xi, \xi}{H} + \dpn{\xi, T^*T\xi}{H} = \norm{\xi}_H^2 + \norm{T\xi}_H^2
\]
so $T\xi = \xi = 0$, and $\eta = 0$ as well.
($T^*T \subset (T^*T)^*$): For each $\xi, \eta \in D(T^*T)$, $\dpn{T^*T\xi, \eta}{H} = \dpn{\xi, T^*T\eta}{H}$, so $T^*T \subset (T^*T)^*$.
($T^*T \supset (T^*T)^*$): Let $\xi \in D((T^*T)^*)$, then by (2) of \autoref{lemma:closed-unbonuded-adjoint}, there exists $\eta \in D(T^*T)$ such that $\xi + (T^*T)^*\xi = \eta + T^*T\eta$. In which case, for each $\theta \in D(T^*T)$,
\begin{align*}
\dpn{(I+T^*T)^*\xi, \theta}{H} &= \dpn{(I+T^*T)\eta, \theta}{H} \\
\dpn{\xi, (I + T^*T)\theta}{H} &= \dpn{\eta, (I+T^*T)^*\theta}{H}
\end{align*}
As the above holds for all $\theta \in D(T^*T)$, (2) of \autoref{lemma:closed-unbonuded-adjoint} implies that $\dpn{\xi, \theta}{H} = \dpn{\eta, \theta}{H}$ for all $\theta \in H$. Therefore $\xi = \eta \in D(T^*T)$, and $T^*T \supset (T^*T)^*$.
\end{proof}
\begin{definition}[Absolute Value]
\label{definition:unbounded-absolute-value}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a closed, densely defined linear operator, and $|T| = (T^*T)^{1/2}: D(|T|) \to H$, then:
\begin{enumerate}
\item $|T|$ is a densely defined, self-adjoint, and positive operator.
\item Equip $D(T)$ with the inner product $\dpn{\xi, \eta}{D(T)} = \dpn{\xi, \eta}{H} + \dpn{T\xi, T\eta}{H}$, then $D(T)$ is a Hilbert space with $D(T^*T)$ being dense in $D(T)$.
\item Equip $D(|T|)$ with the inner product $\dpn{\xi, \eta}{D(|T|)} = \dpn{\xi, \eta}{H} + \dpn{|T|\xi, |T|\eta}{H}$, then $D(|T|)$ is a Hilbert space with $D(T^*T)$ being dense in $D(|T|)$.
\item $D(T) = D(|T|)$.
\item For each $\xi \in D(T) = D(|T|)$, $\normn{T\xi}_H = \norm{|T|\xi}_H$. In particular, $\ker T = \ker |T|$.
\end{enumerate}
The operator $|T|$ is the \textbf{absolute value} of $T$.
\end{definition}
\begin{proof}
(1): By \hyperref[von Neumann's theorem]{theorem:von-neumann-closed-operator}, $T^*T: D(T^*T) \to H$ is a densely defined, self-adjoint, and positive operator. Thus $|T| = (T^*T)^{1/2}$ is well-defined, self-adjoint, and positive via the \hyperref[spectral theorem]{theorem:spectral-theorem-1-unbounded}.
(2): By definition, $D(T)$ is isomorphic to the graph of $T$, which is a Hilbert space given that $T$ is closed.
Let $\xi \in D(T)$ with $\xi \perp D(T^*T)$, then for each $\eta \in D(T^*T)$,
\[
0 = \dpn{\xi, \eta}{H} + \dpn{T\xi, T\eta}{H} = \dpn{\xi, (I + T^*T)\eta}{H}
\]
By (2) of \autoref{lemma:closed-unbonuded-adjoint}, $(I+T^*T): D(T^*T) \to H$ is surjective, so $\xi = 0$, and $D(T^*T)$ is dense in $D(T)$.
(3): By (3) of \autoref{definition:unbounded-spectral-integral}, $|T|$ is self-adjoint, and in particular closed. Since $D(T)$ is isomorphic to the graph of $|T|$, $D(|T|)$ is a Hilbert space. Similarly, for any $\xi \in D(|T|)$ with $\xi \perp D(T^*T)$ and $\eta \in D(T^*T)$, by the \hyperref[Borel functional calculus]{definition:unbounded-spectral-integral}\footnote{The fact that the spectral measure of a positive element is supported in $[0, \infty)$ is needed here.},
\[
0 = \dpn{\xi, \eta}{H} + \dpn{|T|\xi, |T|\eta}{H} = \dpn{\xi, (I + T^*T)\eta}{H}
\]
By (2) of \autoref{lemma:closed-unbonuded-adjoint}, $\xi = 0$, and $D(T^*T)$ is dense in $D(|T|)$.
(4): For any $\xi \in D(T^*T)$, $\norm{\xi}_{D(T)} = \norm{\xi}_{D(|T|)}$. By (2) and (3), $D(T)$ and $D(|T|)$ are both the completions of $D(T^*T)$ under the same norm, so, $D(T) = D(|T|)$.
(5): For each $\xi \in D(T^*T)$,
\[
\normn{T\xi}_H^2 = \dpn{T\xi, T\xi}{H} = \dpn{\xi, T^*T\xi}{H} = \dpn{|T|\xi, |T|\xi}{H} = \norm{|T|\xi}_H^2
\]
By the density provided in (2) and (3), $\normn{T\xi}_H^2 = \norm{|T|\xi}_H^2$ for all $\xi \in D(T)$.
\end{proof}
\begin{theorem}[Polar Decomposition (Unbounded)]
\label{theorem:unbounded-polar-decomposition}
Let $H$ be a complex Hilbert space, $T: D(T) \to H$ be a closed, densely defined linear operator, then there exists a unique partial isometry $U \in B(H)$ with $\ker U = \ker T$ such that $T = U|T|$, where $|T|$ is the \hyperref[absolute value]{definition:unbounded-absolute-value} of $T$.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
By \autoref{definition:unbounded-absolute-value}, $|T|: D(T) \to H$ is a densely defined, self-adjoint, and positive operator with $\normn{T\xi}_H = \norm{|T|\xi}_H$ for all $\xi \in D(T)$ and $\ker(T) = \ker(|T|)$. Let
\[
U: |T|(D(T)) \to T(D(T)) \quad |T|\xi \mapsto T\xi
\]
then $U$ extends into a well-defined isometry $\ol{|T|(D(T))} \to \ol{T(D(T))}$. Further extend $U$ to $H$ by setting $U|_{|T|(D(T))^\perp} = 0$, then $U: H \to \ol{T(D(T))} \subset H$ is a partial isometry with $T = U|T|$. As $|T|$ is self-adjoint,
\[
\ker(U) = |T|(D(T))^\perp = \ker(|T|) = \ker(T)
\]
Finally, let $V: H \to H$ be a partial isometry with $T = V|T|$ and $\ker(V) = \ker(T)$, then for each $\xi \in D(T)$, $V|T|\xi = T\xi = U|T|\xi$, so $U = V$ on $|T|(D(T))$. By continuity, $U = V$ on $\ol{|T|(D(T))}$. As
\[
\ker(V) = \ker(T) = \ker(U) = |T|(D(T))^\perp
\]
and $H = \ker(V) \oplus \ol{|T|(D(T))}$, $U = V$.
