In this article we introduce the concept of $z^circ$-filter on a topological space $X$. We study and investigate the behavior of $z^circ$-filters and compare them  with corresponding ideals, namely, $z^circ$-ideals of $C(X)$,  the ring of real-valued continuous functions on a completely regular Hausdorff space $X$. It is observed that $X$ is a compact space if and only if every $z^circ$-filter ...

The purpose of this note is to compare the rings of continuous functions, integer-valued or real-valued, in pointfree topology with those in classical topology. To this end, it first characterizes the Boolean frames (= complete Boolean algebras) whose function rings are isomorphic to a classical one and then employs this to exhibit a large class of frames for which the functions rings are not o...

3 ABSTRACT. Let c > 0 be a fixed constant. Let 0 ≤ r < s be an arbitrary pair of real numbers. Let a, b be any pair of real numbers such that | b − a | ≤ c(s − r). Define C s r to be the set of continuous real-valued functions on [r, s], and define C r to be the set of continuous real-valued functions on [ r, +∞). Finally, consider the following sets of Lipschitz functions:
