Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0703.00009.] In his bracket formalism, Dirac considers two kinds of vectors, the space of bra vectors and the space of ket vectors. In this paper the authors introduce the mathematical concepts which lie at the basis of Dirac's formalism, they give a mathematical interpretation of Dirac's formalism. Most proofs are omitted.
