Let F be a complete topological field. We undertake a study of the ring C(X, F) of all continuous F-valued functions on a topological space X whose topology is determined by C(X, F), in that it is the ...

A completely regular topological space 𝑋 is called a 𝑃-space if every zero-set in 𝑋 is open. An intermediate ring is a ring 𝐴(𝑋) of real-valued continuous functions on 𝑋 containing all the ...
