Realcompactness and spaces of vector-valued functions

Jesus Araujo (2002)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

It is shown that the existence of a biseparating map between a large class of spaces of vector-valued continuous functions A(X,E) and A(Y,F) implies that some compactifications of X and Y are homeomorphic. In some cases, conditions are given to warrant the existence of a homeomorphism between the realcompactifications of X and Y; in particular we find remarkable differences with respect to the scalar context: namely, if E and F are infinite-dimensional and T: C*(X,E) → C*(Y,F) is a biseparating...

Rigid extensions of -groups of continuous functions

Michelle L. Knox, Warren Wm. McGovern (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let C ( X , ) , C ( X , ) and C ( X ) denote the -groups of integer-valued, rational-valued and real-valued continuous functions on a topological space X , respectively. Characterizations are given for the extensions C ( X , ) C ( X , ) C ( X ) to be rigid, major, and dense.

Rings of continuous functions vanishing at infinity

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We prove that a Hausdorff space X is locally compact if and only if its topology coincides with the weak topology induced by C ( X ) . It is shown that for a Hausdorff space X , there exists a locally compact Hausdorff space Y such that C ( X ) C ( Y ) . It is also shown that for locally compact spaces X and Y , C ( X ) C ( Y ) if and only if X Y . Prime ideals in C ( X ) are uniquely represented by a class of prime ideals in C * ( X ) . -compact spaces are introduced and it turns out that a locally compact space X is -compact if and only if every...
