Let G(X) denote the smallest (von Neumann) regular ring of real-valued functions with domain X that contains C(X), the ring of continuous real-valued functions on a Tikhonov topological space (X,τ). We investigate when G(X) coincides with the ring of continuous real-valued functions on the space , where is the smallest Tikhonov topology on X for which and is von Neumann regular. The compact and metric spaces for which are characterized. Necessary, and different sufficient, conditions...
