Primes

• Dense Set
  • In topology and analysis it appears as the rationals in the reals, the algebraic numbers in the complex plane, and polynomials in continuous functions (Stone–Weierstrass).

    This sourceThe Stone–Weierstrass theorem, establishing density of polynomial (and more general) subalgebras in spaces of continuous functions.

Domain-specific

• Stone–Weierstrass Theorem
  • Stone's theorem generalizes Weierstrass's polynomial approximation on an interval by replacing polynomials with any qualifying function algebra and the interval with a compact Hausdorff space.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
