Relations To Other Results
This result is related to the Von Neumann bicommutant theorem, which states that, for a *-algebra A of operators on a Hilbert space H, the double commutant A′′ can be approximated by A on any given finite set of vectors. See also the Kaplansky density theorem in the von Neumann algebra setting.

Famous quotes containing the words relations to, relations and/or results:
“I have no wealthy or popular relations to recommend me.”
—Abraham Lincoln (18091865)
“Subject the material world to the higher ends by understanding it in all its relations to daily life and action.”

“Pain itself can be pleasurable accidentally in so far as it is accompanied by wonder, as in stage-plays; or in so far as it recalls a beloved object to ones memory, and makes one feel ones love for the thing, whose absence gives us pain. Consequently, since love is pleasant, both pain and whatever else results from love, in so far as they remind us of our love, are pleasant.”
—Thomas Aquinas (c. 12251274)
