Topological Algebra
In mathematics, a topological algebra A is an algebra and at the same time a topological space, where the algebraic and the topological structures are coherent in a specified sense. Definition A topological algebra A over a topological field K is a topological vector space together with a bilinear multiplication :\cdot: A \times A \to A, :(a,b) \mapsto a \cdot b that turns A into an algebra over K and is continuous in some definite sense. Usually the ''continuity of the multiplication'' is expressed by one of the following (non-equivalent) requirements: * ''joint continuity'': for each neighbourhood of zero U\subseteq A there are neighbourhoods of zero V\subseteq A and W\subseteq A such that V \cdot W\subseteq U (in other words, this condition means that the multiplication is continuous as a map between topological spaces or * ''stereotype continuity'': for each totally bounded set S\subseteq A and for each neighbourhood of zero U\subseteq A there is a neighbourhood of zero V\s ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Topological Ring
In mathematics, a topological ring is a ring R that is also a topological space such that both the addition and the multiplication are continuous as maps: R \times R \to R where R \times R carries the product topology. That means R is an additive topological group and a multiplicative topological semigroup. Topological rings are fundamentally related to topological fields and arise naturally while studying them, since for example completion of a topological field may be a topological ring which is not a field. General comments The group of units R^\times of a topological ring R is a topological group when endowed with the topology coming from the embedding of R^\times into the product R \times R as \left(x, x^\right). However, if the unit group is endowed with the subspace topology as a subspace of R, it may not be a topological group, because inversion on R^\times need not be continuous with respect to the subspace topology. An example of this situation is the adele ring of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
