Abstract
In this article we prove the existence of the polar decomposition for densely defined closed right linear operators in quaternionic Hilbert spaces: If is a densely defined closed right linear operator in a quaternionic Hilbert space , then there exists a partial isometry such that . In fact is unique if . In particular, if is separable and is a partial isometry with , then we prove that if and only if either or .
