For any topological near-ring (which is not a ring) whose additive group is the additive group of real numbers, we investigate the near-ring of all continuous functions, under the pointwise operations, from a compact Hausdorff space into that near-ring. Specifically, we determine all the homomorphisms from one such near-ring of functions to another and we show that within a rather extensive class of spaces, the endomorphism semigroup of the near-ring of functions completely determines the topological structure of the space.

AbstractGiven a commutative semiring with a compatible preorder satisfying a version of the Archimedean property, the asymptotic spectrum, as introduced by Strassen (J. reine angew. Math. 1988), is an essentially unique compact Hausdorff space together with a map from the semiring to the ring of continuous functions. Strassen’s theorem characterizes an asymptotic relaxation of the preorder that asymptotically compares large powers of the elements up to a subexponential factor as the pointwise partial order of the corresponding functions, realizing the asymptotic spectrum as the space of monotone semiring homomorphisms to the nonnegative real numbers. Such preordered semirings have found applications in complexity theory and information theory. We prove a generalization of this theorem to preordered semirings that satisfy a weaker polynomial growth condition. This weaker hypothesis does not ensure in itself that nonnegative real-valued monotone homomorphisms characterize the (appropriate modification of the) asymptotic preorder. We find a sufficient condition as well as an equivalent condition for this to hold. Under these conditions the asymptotic spectrum is a locally compact Hausdorff space satisfying a similar universal property as in Strassen’s work.

Kernel Representation

Representation theorems for additive functional have been obtained in [2, 4; 6-8; 10-13]. Our aim in this paper is to study the representation of additive operators.Let S be a compact Hausdorff space and let C(S) be the space of real-valued continuous functions defined on S. Let X be an arbitrary Banach space and let T be an additive operator (see § 2) mapping C(S) into X. We will show (see Lemma 3.4) that additive operators may be represented in terms of a family of “measures” {μh} which take their values in X**. If X is weakly sequentially complete, then {μh} can be shown to take their values in X and are vector-valued measures (i.e., countably additive in the norm) (see Lemma 3.7). And, if X* is separable in the weak-* topology, T may be represented in terms of a kernel representation satisfying the Carathéordory conditions (see [9; 11; §4]):

We characterize the centre of the Banach lattice of Banach lattice -valued continuous functions on the Alexandroff duplicate of a compact Hausdorff space in terms of the centre of , the space of -valued continuous functions on . We also identify the centre of whose elements are the sums of -valued continuous and discrete functions defined on a compact Hausdorff space without isolated points, which was given by Alpay and Ercan (2000).

Let S be a compact Hausdorff space and let Φ: C(S)→E be a linear operator defined on the space of real-valued continuous functions on S and taking values in a (real) topological vector space E. Then Φ is called exhaustive (7) if given any sequence of functions fn ∈ C(S) such that fn ≧ 0 andthen Φ(fn)→0 If E is complete then it was shown in (7) that exhaustive maps are precisely those which possess regular integral extensions to the space of bounded Borel functions on S; this is equivalent to possessing a representationwhere μ is a regular countably additive E-valued measure defined on the σ-algebra of Borel subsets of S.

The closed wedges in C(X) (the space of real continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space X) which are also inf-lattices have been characterized by Choquet and Deny (2); see also (5). The present note extends their result to certain wedges of affine continuous functions on a Choquet simplex, the generalization being in the same spirit as the generalization of the Kakutani- Stone theorem obtained by Edwards in (4).I should like to thank my supervisor, Dr D. A. Edwards, for suggesting this problem and for his subsequent help. I am also grateful to the referee for correcting several slips.

The Stone-Weierstrass theorem gives very simple necessary and sufficient conditions for a subset A of the algebra of all real-valued continuous functions on the compact Hausdorff space X to generate a subalgebra dense in namely, this is so if and only if the functions of A strongly separate the points of X, in other words given any two distinct points of X there exists a function in A taking different values at these points, and given any point of X there exists a function in A non-zero there. In the case of the algebra of all complex-valued continuous functions on X, the same result holds provided that we consider the subalgebra generated by A together with Ā, the set of complex conjugates of the functions in A.

The maximal ideals in a commutative Banach algebra with identity have been elegantly characterized [5; 6] as those subspaces of codimension one which do not contain invertible elements. Also, see [1]. For a function algebra A, a closed separating subalgebra with constants of the algebra of complex-valued continuous functions on the spectrum of A, a compact Hausdorff space, this characterization can be restated: Let F be a linear functional on A with the property: (*) For each ƒ in A there is a point s, which may depend on f, for which F(f) = f(s).
