Bridging Mathematics and Cellulose Studies: Investigating Closed Subspaces Hilbert Base Construction

Abstract

This research focuses on mathematically analyzing specific aspects of cellulose, particularly its molecular sequences. The goal is to employ Hilbert base construction to quantify and understand the structural and mechanical characteristics of cellulose at the molecular level. This is crucial for advancing our knowledge in plant biology and engineering cellulose-based materials. The study rigorously investigates mathematical properties, such as the equivalence between complete subspaces and closed subspaces, the interplay between closed subspaces and their orthogonal complements, and the existence of the closest vector within the Hilbert space to closed subspaces. The outcomes of this research can be adapted and extended to contribute to the construction and manipulation of Hilbert bases specifically for understanding and characterizing the polymer sequences in cellulose. Moreover, the application of these mathematical concepts extends to both structural and functional analysis of cellulose, encompassing mechanical behavior, chemical interactions, and functional attributes. This rigorous mathematical approach offers a more nuanced understanding of cellulose beyond its physical structure, paving the way for groundbreaking advancements in cellulose research and applications.
