If the $g_i$ form a complete set in the given subspace of $f$ can than the function be represented such that
$$f(x, y) = sum_i g_i(x;y)h_i(y)
$$
where $g_i(x;y)$ depend explicitly on $x$ but only parametically on $y$?

It's really unclear to me what You are asking. What does "depend only parametrically" mean, what are $h_i$ for functions and through what set do the $i$'s run?

What does "depend explicitly on $x$ but only parametically on $y$" mean? Do you mean something like "for each value of $y$ the set ${g_i(x;y)}$ is a complete set of functions"?

I am sorry if the question is unclear, I am no mathematician. @Winther: so yes. for each value of $y$ the $g_i(x;y)$ form a complete set such that if you fix $y$ for a given value $g_i(x;y)$ still depends explicitly on x. The $h_i$ would then be the coefficients in a sense. The $i$'s run through the natural numbers till infinity.

or even: is $f(x,y) = g(x;y)h(y)$ true? where $g(x;y)$ implies that the function is defined for each $y$ from a fixed a set ${y}$ such that it still depends on $x$?

If you have a function $f(x,y)$ that is square integrable on a rectangle $a le x le b$ and $c le y le d$, then you can expand $f$ in a double Fourier series, which gives an infinite sum of functions $sum a_j(x)b_k(y)$.
