Interface jam.operator.OperatorVector

public interface interface OperatorVector
extends hasAdjoint
An OperatorVector is a mathematically a vector with the natural operator behavior which follows from a vector.
Specifically, a vector may be thought of as a linear operator mapping a real number to a vector via:
v(a) = a*v
In words, the operator v(.) maps the real number "a" to the vector which is simply the vector "v" scaled by "a".

The adjoint, then, is defined by:
v'(u) = dot(v,u)
In words, the adjoint of v, v'(.), maps the vector u to the real number which is the inner product of v and u.
