Exhausting Sequence of Finite-Dimensional Subspaces of a Real Hilbert Space

A nondecreasing sequence of finite-dimensional closed linear subspaces whose union is dense.

Statement

Let R\mathbb{R} be the ordered field of real numbers, with the notation of that item, let N\mathbb{N} be the set of natural numbers, and let HH be a real Hilbert space with norm ∣⋅∣|\cdot|.

A sequence (Hn)n∈N(H_{n})_{n\in\mathbb{N}} of closed linear subspaces of HH, each of which is a vector space over R\mathbb{R} under the restricted operations of HH by claim 1 of A Linear Subspace is a Vector Space and Inherits an Inner Product, is an exhausting sequence for HH if

1. Hn⊆Hn+1H_{n}\subseteq H_{n+1} for every n∈Nn\in\mathbb{N};

2. each HnH_{n} is finite-dimensional as a vector space over R\mathbb{R};

3. for every x∈Hx\in H and every real ε>0\varepsilon>0 there exist n∈Nn\in\mathbb{N} and y∈Hny\in H_{n} with ∣x−y∣<ε|x-y|<\varepsilon.
