An analog of the Whittaker-Shannon-Kotel'nikov sampling theorem is der
ived for functions with values in a separable Hilbert space. The proof
uses the concept of frames and frame operators in a Hilbert space. On
e of the consequences of this theorem is that it allows us to derive s
ampling theorems associated with boundary-value problems and some homo
geneous integral equations, which in turn gives us a generalization of
another sampling theorem by Kramer.
