Real closed rings, I. Residue rings of rings of continuous functions
Let denote a subalgebra of which is closed under local bounded inversion, briefly, an -subalgebra. These subalgebras were first introduced and studied in Redlin L., Watson S., Structure spaces for rings of continuous functions with applications to realcompactifications, Fund. Math. 152 (1997), 151–163. By characterizing maximal ideals of , we generalize the notion of -ideals, which was first introduced in Acharyya S.K., De D., An interesting class of ideals in subalgebras of containing...
We deal with the representation of locally convex algebras. On one hand as subalgebras of some weighted space CV(X) and on the other hand, in the case of uniformly A-convex algebras, as inductive limits of Banach algebras. We also study some questions on the spectrum of a locally convex algebra.
