Hilbert space
A Hilbert space is an inner product space which is http://planetmath.org/node/603complete under the metric.
In particular, a Hilbert space is a Banach space in the norm by the inner product, since the norm and the inner product both induce the same metric. Any finite-dimensional inner product space is a Hilbert space, but it is worth mentioning that some authors require the space to be infinite dimensional for it to be called a Hilbert space.
