Zusammenfassung:An orthogonalization process is proposed, applicable to spaces which are realizations of abstract Hilbert space. It is simpler than the Gram-Schmidt process. A recurrence relation which orthogonalizes a physical space is proposed and it is shown that the generalized Langevin equation is contained therein. This process serves as a basis for understanding the nature of the dynamic many-body formalism.
