For each space X, there exists a completely regular Hausdorff space Y such that C(X) ≅ C(Y). 5

Major Objective? X is connected ⟺ The only idempotents of C(X) are constant functions 0 and 1. 6 Elements of C ( X ), Ideals of C ( X )

f ∈C(X) is zerodivisor⟺ int Z( f ) ≠ϕ Every element of C(X) is zerodivisor ⟺ X is an almost P-space Problem. Let X be a metric space and A and B be two closed subset of X. If (A ⋃B)˚≠ϕ, then either A ˚≠ϕ or B ˚≠ϕ. 7

1- Every ideal in C(X) is a z-ideal 2- C(X) is a regular ring 3- X is a P-space (Gillman-Henriksen) Whenever X is compact, then every prime z-ideal is either minimal or maximal if and only if X is the union of a finite number one-point compactification of discrete spaces. (Henriksen, Martinez and Woods) 29

Kohls, Prime ideals in rings of continuous functions, II, Duke Math. J. 25(1958), 447-458. Properties of z-ideals in C(X): Every z-ideal in C(X) is semi prime. Sum of z-ideals is a z-ideal. (Gillman, Jerison)(Rudd) Sum of two prime ideal is a prime (Kohls) z-ideal or all of C(X). (Mason) Sum of a prime ideal and a z-ideal is a prime z-ideal or all of C(X). (Mason) Prime ideals minimal over a z-ideal is a z-ideal. (Mason) If all prime ideals minimal over an ideal in C(X) are z-ideals, that ideal is also a z-ideal. (Mullero+ Azarpanah, Mohamadian) Prime ideals in C(X) containing a given prime ideal form a chain. (Kohls) If a z-iIdeal in C(X) contains a prime ideal, then it is a prime ideal. (Kohls) 30

Clean elements Clean ideals An element of a ring R is called clean if it is the sum of a unit and an idempotent. A subset S of R is called clean if each element of S is clean. F. Azarpanah, O. A. S.
