In the theory of [[von Neumann algebra]]s, the '''Kaplansky density theorem''' states that if ''A'' is a *-subalgebra of the algebra ''B''(''H'') of bounded operators on a [[Hilbert space]] ''H'', then the strong closure of the unit ball of ''A'' in ''B''(''H'') is the unit ball of the strong closure of ''A'' in ''B''(''H''). This gives a strengthening of the [[von Neumann bicommutant theorem]], showing that an element ''a'' of the double commutant of ''A'', denoted by ''A&prime;&prime;'', can be strongly approximated by elements of ''A'' whose norm is no larger than that of ''a''.  
 
The standard proof uses the fact that, when ''f'' is bounded, the [[continuous functional calculus]] ''a'' {{mapsto}} ''f''(''a'') satisfies, for a net {''a<sub>α</sub>''} of [[self adjoint operator]]s
 
:<math>\lim f(a_{\alpha}) = f (\lim a_{\alpha})</math>
 
in the [[strong operator topology]]. This shows that self-adjoint part of the unit ball in ''A&prime;&prime;'' can be approximated strongly by self-adjoint elements in the [[C*-algebra]] generated by ''A''. A matrix computation then removes the self-adjointness restriction and proves the theorem.
