It's a simile. In order to understand it, you need to fix the tire on a bicycle, or watch someone else do it. Bicycle tires have a hard rubber outer shell with a softer inner tube. The inner tube is inflated to give shape and substance to the outer shell.

This expression means that hearing Papa’s words made you feel more energized and lively, just like how air fills up a deflated inner tube to make it firm and functional again. It suggests that Papa's words brought a sense of life and buoyancy to you, helping to rejuvenate your spirits.

Prove that Hilbert Space is a Metric Space?

The question doesn't make sense, or alternatively it is true by definition. A Hilbert Space is a complete inner product space - complete in the metric induced by the norm defined by the inner product over the space. In other words an inner product space is a vector space with an inner product defined on it. An inner product then defines a norm on the space, and every norm on a space induces a metric. A Hilbert Space is thus also a complete metric space, simply where the metric is induced by the inner product.
