More smoothly real compact spaces
arXiv:math/9206204
Abstract
A topological space is called $\Cal A$-real compact, if every algebra homomorphism from $\Cal A$ to the reals is an evaluation at some point of , where $\Cal A$ is an algebra of continuous functions. Our main interest lies on algebras of smooth functions. In \cite{AdR} it was shown that any separable Banach space is smoothly real compact. Here we generalize this result to a huge class of locally convex spaces including arbitrary products of separable Fréchet spaces.
