The Riesz representation theorem is a fundamental result in functional analysis that characterizes certain types of linear functionals on a space of continuous functions. The most commonly referenced version of the theorem deals with the space of continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space, often denoted as \\( C(X) \\), where \\( X \\) is a compact Hausdorff topological space.
