Abstract
Let be a compact subset of and denote by the ring of continuous functions from into . We obtain two kinds of adelic versions of the Weierstrass approximation theorem. Firstly, we prove that the ring is dense in the direct product for the uniform convergence topology. Secondly, under the hypothesis that, for each , for all but finitely many , we prove the existence of regular bases of the -module , and show that, for such a basis , every function in may be uniquely written as a series where and .

Comments
minor corrections the statement of Theorem 3.5, which covers the case of a general compact subset of the profinite completion of Z. to appear in Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra, comments are welcome!
