Local/global uniform approximation of real-valued continuous functions
For a Tychonoff space , is the lattice-ordered group (-group) of real-valued continuous functions on , and is the sub--group of bounded functions. A property that might have is (AP) whenever is a divisible sub--group of , containing the constant function 1, and separating points from closed sets in , then any function in can be approximated uniformly over by functions which are locally in . The vector lattice version of the Stone-Weierstrass Theorem is more-or-less equivalent...
