Examples
For example, when X is finite and H consists of all complex-valued functions on X, then an element of H can be represented as an array of complex numbers. If the usual inner product is used, then Kx is the function whose value is 1 at x and 0 everywhere else, and K(x,y) can be thought of as an identity matrix since K(x,y)=1 when x=y and K(x,y)=0 otherwise. In this case, H is isomorphic to .
A more sophisticated example is the Hardy space H2(D), the space of square-integrable holomorphic functions on the unit disc. So here X=D, the unit disc. It can be shown that the reproducing kernel for H2(D) is
This kernel is an example of a Bergman kernel, named for Stefan Bergman.

Famous quotes containing the word examples:
“In the examples that I here bring in of what I have [read], heard, done or said, I have refrained from daring to alter even the smallest and most indifferent circumstances. My conscience falsifies not an iota; for my knowledge I cannot answer.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
“Histories are more full of examples of the fidelity of dogs than of friends.”
—Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
“It is hardly to be believed how spiritual reflections when mixed with a little physics can hold people’s attention and give them a livelier idea of God than do the often ill-applied examples of his wrath.”
—G.C. (Georg Christoph)
