Théories spectrales, chapter IV, § 4. Opérateurs partiels

Let E and F be normed spaces over K and let uu be a partial operator from E into F.

1) The canonical injection of EuE_u into E is continuous since one has ∥x∥⩽∥x∥u\|x\|\leqslant \|x\|_u for every x∈Ex\in E. In particular, every subspace of dom(uu) which is closed in E is closed in EuE_u.

2) If E and F are Hilbert spaces, then the space EuE_u is a prehilbertian space, since the norm on EuE_u arises from the positive Hermitian form

(x,y)↦(x∣y)u=⟨x∣y⟩+⟨u(x)∣u(y)⟩ (x, y)\mapsto (x|y)_u=\langle x|y\rangle +\langle u(x)|u(y)\rangle

on dom(uu).

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
