Abstract

In this manuscript, we transport the classical Operator Theory on complex Banach spaces to normed modules over absolutely valued rings. In some cases, we are able to extend classical results on complex Banach spaces to normed modules over normed rings. In order to make sure that bounded linear maps on normed modules coincide with the continuous linear maps, it is sufficient that the underlying ring be practical (a topological ring is practical if the invertibles approach zero). In order for other classical results to work on the scope of normed modules, it is sufficient that the underlying ring be normalizing. Normalizing rings is a new class of rings introduced in this manuscript. We provide a characterization of such rings as well as nontrivial examples.
