</p><p>It can be shown that square integrable functions form a <a href="Complete_metric_space" title="Complete metric space">complete metric space</a> under the metric induced by the inner product defined above.
A complete metric space is also called a <a href="Cauchy_space" title="Cauchy space">Cauchy space</a>, because sequences in such metric spaces converge if and only if they are <a href="Cauchy_sequence" title="Cauchy sequence">Cauchy</a>.
A space that is complete under the metric induced by a norm is a <a href="Banach_space" title="Banach space">Banach space</a>.
Therefore, the space of square integrable functions is a Banach space, under the metric induced by the norm, which in turn is induced by the inner product.
As we have the additional property of the inner product, this is specifically a <a href="Hilbert_space" title="Hilbert space">Hilbert space</a>, because the space is complete under the metric induced by the inner product.
</p><p>This inner product space is conventionally denoted by <span class="mwe-math-element mwe-math-element-inline"><span class="mwe-math-mathml-inline mwe-math-mathml-a11y" style="display: none;"><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" alttext="{\displaystyle \left(L_{2},\langle \cdot ,\cdot \rangle _{2}\right)}">
