Extract

§ 1. Let L2(0, ∞) denote the Hilbert space of Lebesgue measurable, integrable-square functions on the half-line [0, ∞).

Integral operators of the form

acting on the space L2 (0, ∞) occur in the theory of ordinary differential equations; see for example the book by E. C. Titchmarsh [4; § 2.6]. It is important to establish when operators of this kind are bounded; see the book by A. E. Taylor [3; § 4.1 and §§4.11, 4.12 and § 4.13].
