Hilbert spaces are a kind of linear space used in quantum mechanics.

Notes on verification

Multiple authoritative academic and mathematical sources confirm both the definition of Hilbert spaces as complete inner product spaces (a type of linear/vector space) and their fundamental role in quantum mechanics. Sources include established mathematical references (MathWorld), quantum information resources (Quantiki), academic institutions (CMU, Cambridge), and scientific databases (ScienceDirect).
