In this paper, we study some properties of the ring $C(X)_F$ of all real valued functions which are continuous except on some finite subsets of $X$. We show that $C(X)_F$ is closed under uniform limit if and only if the set of all…

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…

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…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be an ideal of closed subsets of a topological space $X$. Consider the ring, $C(X)_\mathcal{P}$ of real valued functions on $X$ whose closure of discontinuity set is a member of $\mathcal{P}$. We investigate the ring…

We consider the ring of real analytic functions defined on $[0,1]$, i.e. $$C^{\omega}[0,1] =\lbrace f :[0,1] \longrightarrow \mathbb{R} | f \text{ is analytic on } [0,1]\rbrace$$ In this article, we explore the nature of ideals in this…

In calculus, an indefinite integral of a function $f$ is a differentiable function $F$ whose derivative is equal to $f$. In present paper, we generalize this notion of the indefinite integral from the ring of real functions to any ring. The…

We extend results of Denef, Zahidi, Demeyer and the second author to show the following. (1) Rational integers have a single-fold Diophantine definition over the ring of integral functions of any function field of characteristic 0. (2)…

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…

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…

Let $\cal{P}$ be an open filter base for a filter $\cal{F}$ on $X$. We denote by $C^{\cal{P}}(X)$ ($C_{\infty\cal{P}}(X)$) the set of all functions $f\in C(X)$ where $Z(f)$ ($\{x: |f(x)|< \frac{1}{n}\})$ contains an element of $\cal{P}$.…

Semi-free ideal rings, or semifirs, were introduced by Paul M. Cohn to study universal localizations in the non-commutative setting. We provide new examples of semifirs consisting of analytic functions in several non-commuting variables.…
