Algebraic structures over continuous functions #
In this file we define instances of algebraic structures over the type ContinuousMap α β
(denoted C(α, β)
) of bundled continuous maps from α
to β
. For example, C(α, β)
is a group when β
is a group, a ring when β
is a ring, etc.
For each type of algebraic structure, we also define an appropriate subobject of α → β
with carrier { f : α → β | Continuous f }
. For example, when β
is a group, a subgroup
continuousSubgroup α β
of α → β
is constructed with carrier { f : α → β | Continuous f }
.
Note that, rather than using the derived algebraic structures on these subobjects
(for example, when β
is a group, the derived group structure on continuousSubgroup α β
),
one should use C(α, β)
with the appropriate instance of the structure.

is locally compact, and an infinite sum of functions in C(α, β)

Algebra structure #
In this section we show that continuous functions valued in a topological algebra A
over a ring
R
inherit the structure of an algebra. Note that the hypothesis that A
is a topological algebra
is obtained by requiring that A
be both a ContinuousSMul
and a TopologicalSemiring

A version of Set.SeparatesPoints
for subalgebras of the continuous functions,
used for stating the Stone-Weierstrass theorem.
Instances For
A set of continuous maps "separates points strongly" if for each pair of distinct points there is a function with specified values on them.
We give a slightly unusual formulation, where the specified values are given by some
function v
, and we ask f x = v x ∧ f y = v y
. This avoids needing a hypothesis x ≠ y
.
In fact, this definition would work perfectly well for a set of non-continuous functions, but as the only current use case is in the Stone-Weierstrass theorem, writing it this way avoids having to deal with casts inside the set. (This may need to change if we do Stone-Weierstrass on non-compact spaces, where the functions would be continuous functions vanishing at infinity.)
Instances For
Working in continuous functions into a topological field, a subalgebra of functions that separates points also separates points strongly.
By the hypothesis, we can find a function f
so f x ≠ f y
.
By an affine transformation in the field we can arrange so that f x = a
and f x = b
.
Structure as module over scalar functions #
If M
is a module over R
, then we show that the space of continuous functions from α
to M
is naturally a module over the ring of continuous functions from α
to R
.
We now provide formulas for f ⊓ g
and f ⊔ g
, where f g : C(α, β)
,
in terms of ContinuousMap.abs
.
C(α, β)
is a lattice ordered group
Star structure #
If β
has a continuous star operation, we put a star structure on C(α, β)
by using the
star operation pointwise.
If β
is a ⋆-ring, then C(α, β)
inherits a ⋆-ring structure.
If β
is a ⋆-ring and a ⋆-module over R
, then the space of continuous functions from α
to β
is a ⋆-module over R
.
The functorial map taking f : C(X, Y)
to C(Y, A) →⋆ₐ[𝕜] C(X, A)

with the continuous function f
. See ContinuousMap.compMonoidHom'
and
ContinuousMap.compAddMonoidHom'
, ContinuousMap.compRightAlgHom
for bundlings of
pre-composition into a MonoidHom
, an AddMonoidHom
and an AlgHom
, respectively, under
suitable assumptions on A
.

Summing translates of a function #
Summing the translates of f
by ℤ • p
gives a map which is periodic with period p
.
(This is true without any convergence conditions, since if the sum doesn't converge it is taken to
be the zero map, which is periodic.)

when the continuous map f
is
actually a homeomorphism.
