We prove a commutative Gelfand--Naimark type theorem, by showing that the set $C_s(X)$ of continuous bounded (real or complex valued) functions with separable support on a locally separable metrizable space $X$ (provided with the supremum…

Motivated by the recent developments of de Branges-Rovnyak spaces, we investigate the function theoretic aspects of finite rank de Branges-Rovnyak spaces $H(B)$ generated by row-valued Schur functions $B$. We provide a generalization of…

Let C(K) denote the Banach algebra of continuous real functions, with the supremum norm, on a compact Hausdorff space K. For two subsets of C(K), one can define their product by pointwise multiplication, just as the Minkowski sum of 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)…

Consider the subring $\mathcal{R}_cL$ of continuous real-valued functions defined on a frame $L$, comprising functions with a countable pointfree image. We present some useful properties of $\mathcal{R}_cL$. We establish that both…

Students studying the Lasker-Noether theorem on primary decomposition of ideals may want to see an example of an ideal (necessarily in a non-Noetherian ring) which does not have a primary decomposition. The most well-known counterexample is…

The paper deals with the interplay between boundedness, order and ring structures in function lattices on the line and related metric spaces. It is shown that the lattice of all Lipschitz functions on a normed space $E$ is isomorphic to its…

We study, in the setting of algebraic varieties, finite-dimensional spaces of functions V that are invariant under a ring D^V of differential operators, and give conditions under which D^V acts irreducibly. We show how this problem,…

We formulate a multi-valued version of the Tietze-Urysohn extension theorem. Precisely, we prove that any upper semicontinuous multi-valued map with nonempty closed convex values defined on a closed subset (resp. closed perfectly normal…

We investigate the random dynamics of rational maps on the Riemann sphere and the dynamics of semigroups of rational maps on the Riemann sphere. We show that regarding random complex dynamics of polynomials, in most cases, the chaos of the…

We prove the following results. 1. If $X$ is a $\alpha$-favourable space, $Y$ is a regular space, in which every separable closed set is compact, and $f:X\times Y\to\mathbb R$ is a separately continuous everywhere jointly discontinuous…

In this work we analyze the main properties of the Zariski and maximal spectra of the ring ${\mathcal S}^r(M)$ of differentiable semialgebraic functions of class ${\mathcal C}^r$ on a semialgebraic set $M\subset\mathbb{R}^m$. Denote…

In this paper we continue our research of functions on the boundary of their domain and obtain some results on cluster sets of functions between topological spaces. In particular, we prove that for a metrizable topological space $X$, a…

This paper approaches the construction of the universal completion of the Riesz space $\mathrm{C}(L)$ of continuous real functions on a completely regular frame $L$ in two different ways. Firstly as the space of continuous real functions on…
