Uniform spaces spanier quasitopologies, and a duality for locally convex algebras

Gelfand-type duality results can be obtained for locally convex algebras using a quasitopological structure on the spectrum of an algebra (as opposed to the topologies traditionally considered). In this way, the duality between (commutative, with identity) C*-algebras and compact spaces can be exten...
