Let X be a completely regular topological space. Let A ( X ) be a ring of continuous functions between C ( X ) and C ( X ) , that is, C ( X ) A ( X ) C ( X ) . In [9], a correspondence 𝒵 A between ideals of A ( X ) and z -filters on X is defined. Here we show that 𝒵 A extends the well-known correspondence for C ( X ) to all rings A ( X ) . We define a new correspondence 𝒵 A and show that it extends the well-known correspondence for C ( X ) to all rings A ( X ) . We give a formula that relates the two correspondences. We use properties of 𝒵 A and 𝒵 A to characterize C ( X ) and C ( X ) among all rings A ( X ) . We show that 𝒵 A defines a one-one correspondence between maximal ideals in A ( X ) and the z -ultrafilters in X .

AB - Let $X$ be a completely regular topological space. Let $A(X)$ be a ring of continuous functions between $C^∗(X)$ and $C(X)$, that is, $C^∗(X) \subset A(X) \subset C(X)$. In [9], a correspondence $\mathcal {Z}_A$ between ideals of $A(X)$ and $z$-filters on $X$ is defined. Here we show that $\mathcal {Z}_A$ extends the well-known correspondence for $C^∗(X)$ to all rings $A(X)$. We define a new correspondence $\mathcal {Z}_A$ and show that it extends the well-known correspondence for $C(X)$ to all rings $A(X)$. We give a formula that relates the two correspondences. We use properties of $\mathcal {Z}_A$ and $\mathcal {Z}_A$ to characterize $C^∗(X)$ and $C(X)$ among all rings $A(X)$. We show that $\mathcal {Z}_A$ defines a one-one correspondence between maximal ideals in $A(X)$ and the $z$-ultrafilters in $X$.
