ON THE MAXIMAL DISJOINT SYSTEM IN Riesz ALGEBRAS AND REPRESENTATION

Let E be an Archimedean Riesz algebra possessing a weak unit element e and a maximal disjoint system {e,: i∈I} in which e, is a projection element for each i. The principal band generated by eiis denoted by B(ei). The main result in this paper says that if there exists a completely regular Hausdorff space X such that E is Riesz algebra isomorphic to C(X) then for every i ∈ I there exists a completely regular Hausdorff space X, such that B(ei) is Riesz algebra isomorphic to C(Xi). Under an additional condition the inverse holds.

On the Maximal Disjoint Division in Riesz Spaces

The authors p oint out a problem in the article of Ref.(Xiong Hongyun,Rong Ximin.Maximal disjoint systems in Riesz space and representation.Acta Math Sinica ,1998,41(4):763-766.)and revise it.Let E be an Archimed ean Riesz space possessing a weak unit e and a maximal disjoint division{e i:i∈I} in which each e i is a proj ection element. Concerning the following statements:(1) There exists a completel y regular Hausdorff space X such that E is Riesz isomorphic to C(X);(2) For every i∈I there exi sts a completely regular Hausdorff space X i such that the band generated by e i is Riesz isomorphic to C(X i).It is shown that (1) implies (2),and find some conditions for the inverse bein g true are found.Furthermore,if each X i in (2) is a compact Ha usdorff space, a necessary and sufficient condition is established under which E can be represented as a C(X) for some compact Hausdorff space X.As corollaries, corresponding results for late rally complete Riesz spaces are obtained.

Riesz Product Spaces and Representation Theory

Let {Ei:i∈I}be a family of Archimedean Riesz spaces.The Riesz product space is denoted by Πi∈I Ei.The main result in this paper is the following conclusion:There exists a completely regular Hausdorff space X such that Πi∈I Ei is Riesz isomorphic to C（X）if and only if for every i ∈ I there exists a completely regular Hausdorff space Xi such that Ei is Riesz isomorphic to C（Xi）.
