For a Hausdorff zero-dimensional topological space $X$ and a totally ordered field $F$ with interval topology, let $C_c(X,F)$ be the ring of all $F-$valued continuous functions on $X$ with countable range. It is proved that if $F$ is either…

Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional space and $C_c(X)$ be the set of all continuous real valued functions on $X$ with countable image. In this article we denote by $C_c^K(X)$ (resp., $C_{c}^{\psi}(X)$) the set of all functions in $C_c(X)$ with…

It is well known that for a non pseudocompact space X, the family (X) of all intermediate subrings of C(X) which contain bounded real valued continuous functions contains at least 2c many distinct rings. We show that if in addition X is…

In this paper, two outwardly different graphs, namely, the zero divisor graph $\Gamma(C_c(X))$ and the comaximal graph $\Gamma_2^{'}(C_c(X))$ of the ring $C_c(X)$ of all real-valued continuous functions having countable range, defined on…

A proper ideal $I$ in a commutative ring with unity is called a $z^\circ$-ideal if for each $a$ in $I$, the intersection of all minimal prime ideals in $R$ which contain $a$ is contained in $I$. For any totally ordered field $F$ and a…

If $I$ is an ideal in the ring $C(X)$ of all real valued continuous functions defined over a Tychonoff space $X$, then $X$ is called $I$-$pseudocompact$ if the set $X\setminus \bigcap Z[I]$ is a bounded subset of $X$. Corresponding to $I$,…

Our aim is to study certain algebraic properties of the ring $C(X)_\mathcal{P}$ of real-valued functions on $X$ whose closure of discontinuity set is in an ideal of closed sets. We characterize $\mathcal{P}P$-spaces using $z$-ideals and…

Consider the ring $C_c(X)_F$ of real valued functions which are discontinuous on a finite set with countable range. We discuss $(\mathcal{Z}_c)_F$-filters on $X$ and $(\mathcal{Z}_c)_F$-ideals of $C_c(X)_F$. We establish an analogous…

Let K be an expansion of either an ordered field or a valued field. Given a definable set X $\subseteq$ K^m let C(X) be the ring of continuous definable functions from X to K. Under very mild assumptions on the geometry of X and…

Let $T''(X)$ and $T'(X)$ denote the collections of all real-valued functions on $X$ which are continuous on a dense cozero set and on an open dense subset of $X$ respectively. $T''(X)$ contains $C(X)$ and forms a subring of $T'(X)$ under…

For a nonempty topological space X, the ring of all real-valued functions on $X$ with pointwise addition and multiplication is denoted by $F(X)$ and continuous members of $F(X)$ is denoted by $C(X)$. Let $A(X)$ be a subring of $F(X)$ and…

By a characterization of semiprime $SA$-rings by Birkenmeier, Ghirati and Taherifar in \cite[Theorem 4.4]{B}, and by the topological characterization of $C(X)$ as a Baer-ring by Stone and Nakano in \cite[Theorem 3.25]{KM}, it is easy to see…

We examine several classical concepts from topology and functional analysis, using methods of commutative algebra. We show that these various concepts are all controlled by BC R-rings and their maximal spectra. A BC R-ring is a ring A that…
