 \subsection{Dual space}
 
+\begin{definition}[Dual space]
+The dual space $V^{\dagger}$ of vector space $V$ over field $K$ is defined as the set of all linear maps from the vector space $V$ into its field $K$
+\begin{equation}
+\varphi:V\rightarrow K \text{ .}
+\end{equation}
+These type of linear maps are termed linear functionals.
+The dual space $V^{\dagger}$ becomes a vector space over $K$ itself by the following additional definitions

 \subsection{Inner and outer product}
 \label{math_app:product}
 
-\begin{definition}
-The inner product ...
+\begin{definition}[Inner product]
+The inner product on a vector space $V$ over $K$ is a map
+$(\cdot,\cdot):V\times V \rightarrow K$, which satisfies
+\begin{itemize}
+\item $(\vec{u},\vec{v})=(\vec{v},\vec{u})^*$
+      (conjugate symmetry, symmetric for $K=\mathbb{R}$)
+\item $(\lambda\vec{u},\vec{v})=\lambda(\vec{u},\vec{v})$ and
+      $(\vec{u}'+\vec{u}'',\vec{v})=(\vec{u}',\vec{v})+(\vec{u}'',\vec{v})$
+      (linearity in first argument)
+\item $(\vec{u},\vec{u})\geq 0 \text{, } ``=" \Leftrightarrow \vec{u}=0$
+      (positive definite)
+\end{itemize}
+for $\vec{u},\vec{v}\in V$ and $\lambda\in K$.
+Taking the complex conjugate $(\cdot)^*$ is the map from
+\begin{equation}
+z=a+bi\mapsto z^*=a-bi \text{, } z,z^*\in K \text{.}
+\end{equation}
 \end{definition}
 
-\begin{definition}
-If $\vec{u}\in U$ and $\vec{v}\in V$ are vectors within the respective vector spaces and $V^{\dagger}$ is the dual space of $V$, the outer product of $\vec{u}$ and $\vec{v}$ is defined as the tensor product ...
+\begin{remark}
+\label{math_app:ip_remark}
+Due to conjugate symmetry, linearity in the first argument results in conjugate linearity (also termed antilinearity) in the second argument.
+\begin{equation}
+(\vec{u},\lambda(\vec{v}'+\vec{v}''))=(\lambda(\vec{v}'+\vec{v}''),\vec{u})^*=
+\lambda^*(\vec{v}',\vec{u})^*+\lambda^*(\vec{v}'',\vec{u})^*=
+\lambda^*(\vec{u},\vec{v}')+\lambda^*(\vec{u},\vec{v}'')
+\end{equation}
+This is called a sesquilinear form.
+If $K=\mathbb{R}$, conjugate symmetry reduces to symmetry and the sesquilinear form gets a bilinear form.
+
+Furtermore, the inner product $(\cdot,\cdot)$ provides a mapping
+\begin{equation}
+V\rightarrow V^{\dagger}:\vec{v}\mapsto \varphi_{\vec{v}}
+\quad
+\text{ defined by }
+\quad
+\varphi_{\vec{v}}(\vec{u})=(\vec{v},\vec{u}) \text{ .}
+\label{eq:ip_mapping}
+\end{equation}
+Since the inner product is linear in the first argument, the same is true for the defined mapping.
+\begin{equation}
+\lambda(\vec{u}+\vec{v}) \mapsto
+\varphi_{\lambda(\vec{u}+\vec{v})}=
+\lambda\varphi_{\vec{u}}+\lambda\varphi_{\vec{v}}\\
+\end{equation}
+If the inner product is nondegenerate, i.e.\  $\forall\vec{u}\, (\vec{v},\vec{u})=0 \Leftrightarrow \vec{v}=0$, as it applies for the scalar product for instance, the mapping is injective.
+Since the dimension of $V$ and $V^{\dagger}$ is equal, it is additionally surjective.
+Then, $V$ is isomorphic to $V^{\dagger}$.
+Vector $\vec{v}^{\dagger}\equiv \varphi_{\vec{v}}\in V^{\dagger}$ is said to be the dual vector of $\vec{v}\in V$.
+The dual pairing $[\vec{v}^{\dagger},\vec{u}]=[\varphi_{\vec{v}},\vec{u}]=\varphi_{\vec{v}}(\vec{u})$ is associated with the inner product $(\vec{v},\vec{u})$.
+
+Now, in physics and matrix algebra, the inner product is often defined with linearity in the second argument and conjugate linearity in the first argument.
+In this case, the antilinearity property is assigned to the element $\varphi_{\vec{v}}=\vec{v}^{\dagger}$ of dual space
+\begin{equation}
+\varphi_{\lambda\vec{v}}(\vec{u})=
+(\lambda\vec{v},\vec{u})=
+\lambda^*(\vec{v},\vec{u})=
+\lambda^*\varphi_{\vec{v}}(\vec{u})
+\end{equation}
+and $V$ is found to be isomorphic to the conjugate complex of its dual space.
+Then, the inner product $(\vec{v},\vec{u})$ is associated with the dual pairing of element $\vec{u}$ of the vector space and $\vec{v}^{\dagger}$ of its conjugate complex dual space
+\begin{equation}
+(\vec{v},\vec{u})\rightarrow 
+[\varphi_{\vec{v}},\vec{u}]=
+[\vec{v}^{\dagger},\vec{u}]
+\text{ .}
+\end{equation}
+
+The standard sesquilinear form $\langle\cdot,\cdot\rangle$, also called Hermitian form, on $\mathbb{C}^n$ and linearity in the second argument, is given by
+\begin{equation}
+\langle\vec{v},\vec{u}\rangle=\sum_i^nv_i^*u_i
+\text{ .}
+\end{equation}
+In this case, in matrix formalism, the inner product is reformulated
+\begin{equation}
+(\vec{v},\vec{u}) \rightarrow \vec{v}^{\dagger}\vec{u}
+\text{ ,}
+\end{equation}
+where the dual vector is associated with the conjugate transpose $\vec{v}^{\dagger}$ of the corresponding vector $\vec{v}$
+and the usual rules of matrix multiplication.
+\end{remark}
+
+\begin{definition}[Outer product]
+If $\vec{u}\in U$, $\vec{v},\vec{w}\in V$ are vectors within the respective vector spaces and $\varphi_{\vec{v}}\in V^{\dagger}$ is a linear functional of the dual space $V^{\dagger}$ of $V$ (determined in some way by $\vec{v}$),
+the outer product $\vec{u}\otimes\vec{v}$ is defined as the tensor product of $\varphi_{\vec{v}}$ and $\vec{u}$,
+which constitutes a map $A:V\rightarrow U$ by
+\begin{equation}
+\vec{w}\mapsto\varphi_{\vec{v}}(\vec{w})\vec{u}
+\text{ ,}
+\end{equation}
+where $\varphi_{\vec{v}}(\vec{w})$ denotes the linear functional $\varphi_{\vec{v}}\in V^{\dagger}$ on $V$ when evaluated at some $\vec{w}\in V$, a scalar that in turn is multiplied with $\vec{u}\in U$.
 \end{definition}
 
+\begin{remark}
+
+In matrix formalism, if $\varphi_{\vec{v}}$ is defined as in \eqref{eq:ip_mapping} and
+if $\vec{u}=\sum_i^m \vec{e}_iu_i$ and $\vec{v}=\sum_i^n\vec{e}'_iv_i$,
+the standard form of the outer product can be written as the matrix
+\begin{equation}
+\vec{u}\otimes\vec{v}=A=\left(
+\begin{array}{c c c c}
+u_1v_1^* & u_1v_2^* & \cdots & u_1v_n^*\\
+u_2v_1^* & u_2v_2^* & \cdots & u_2v_n^*\\
+\vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots\\
+u_mv_1^* & u_mv_2^* & \cdots & u_mv_n^*\\
+\end{array}
+\right)
+\text{ ,}
+\end{equation}
+which can be equivalently obtained by the rulrs of matrix multiplication
+\begin{equation}
+\vec{u}\otimes\vec{v}=\vec{u}\vec{v}^{\dagger} \text{ ,}
+\end{equation}
+if $\vec{u}$ and $\vec{v}$ are represented as $m\times 1$ and $n\times 1$ column vectors, respectively.
+Here, again, $\vec{v}^{\dagger}$ represents the conjugate transpose of $\vec{v}$.
+By definition, and as can be easily seen in matrix representation, the identity
+\begin{equation}
+(\vec{u}\otimes\vec{v})\vec{w}=\vec{u}(\vec{v},\vec{w})
+\end{equation}
+holds.
