SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the properties of densely defined operators in functional analysis, specifically addressing the conditions under which the product of two operators, AB, is densely defined. It is established that if operator A is bounded, then the domain of the product, D(AB), equals the domain of B, confirming that AB is densely defined. Conversely, if both A and B are unbounded densely defined operators, the conditions under which AB remains densely defined depend on the invertibility of B and the density of the range of its inverse, B-1.
