Théories spectrales, chapter IV, § 5. Opérateurs partiels normaux et théorème spectral

Let qq be a positive partial Hermitian form on E. We denote by EqE_q the separated prehilbertian space dom(qq) endowed with the scalar product

(x∣y)q=⟨x∣y⟩+q(x,y) (x|y)_q=\langle x|y\rangle +q(x, y)

We denote by ∥x∥q\|x\|_q the norm of x∈Eqx\in E_q. We say that the form qq is closed if EqE_q is a Hilbert space.

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.
