Riesz-Schauder Theory is a framework in functional analysis that connects the properties of compact operators with spectral theory, particularly focusing on the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of these operators. This theory provides essential tools for analyzing the behavior of linear operators, especially in infinite-dimensional spaces, enabling deeper insights into compact and unbounded self-adjoint operators and their spectra.
