     The dual space of a Banach space ${\displaystyle X}$ is the vector space of continuous linear functions ${\displaystyle X\rightarrow \mathbb {R} }$, which are called functionals. Similar notation is used for duality pairing between the Banach space ${\displaystyle X}$ and its dual space ${\displaystyle X'}$: ${\displaystyle \left\langle u,v\right\rangle }$ is the result of applying the functional ${\displaystyle u\in X'}$ to ${\displaystyle v\in X}$: ${\displaystyle \left\langle u,v\right\rangle =u(v)}$ explicitly uses the fact that ${\displaystyle u}$ is a function ${\displaystyle X\rightarrow \mathbb {R} }$.
