Abstract

We study the topological spectrum of a seminormed ring RR which we define as the space of prime ideals p\mathfrak{p} such that p\mathfrak{p} equals the kernel of some bounded power-multiplicative seminorm. For any seminormed ring RR we show that the topological spectrum is a quasi-compact sober topological space. When RR is a perfectoid Tate ring we construct a natural homeomorphism between the topological spectrum of RR and the topological spectrum of its tilt RR^{\flat}. As an application, we prove that a perfectoid Tate ring RR is an integral domain if and only if its tilt is an integral domain.
