The set of all square-integrable functions on a specified interval satisfy this:

This is often denoted by or just simply if the interval is . The interval can even be for example .

forms a Hilbert space with the inner product:

This is a vector space, thus a function space as well.

Remarks

In quantum mechanics, the wave functions are square-integrable functions.
