Stone: Boolean rings and general topology

Related Boolean-algebraic structure to compact totally disconnected spaces and developed topological applications, including an approximation result encompassing the classical Weierstrass theorem.

What is recorded here?

Related Boolean-algebraic structure to compact totally disconnected spaces and developed topological applications, including an approximation result encompassing the classical Weierstrass theorem.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

The record is Stone's sole-author 1937 Transactions paper. His 1936 Boolean representation theorem, the later lattice-form Stone–Weierstrass theorem, Stone–Čech compactification and subsequent duality generalizations remain separate.
