Continuous functions vanishing at infinity #
The type of continuous functions vanishing at infinity. When the domain is compact
C(α, β) ≃ C₀(α, β) via the identity map. When the codomain is a metric space, every continuous
map which vanishes at infinity is a bounded continuous function. When the domain is a locally
compact space, this type has nice properties.
TODO #
- Create more instances of algebraic structures (e.g.,
NonUnitalSemiring) once the necessary type classes (e.g.,IsTopologicalRing) are sufficiently generalized. - Relate the unitization of
C₀(α, β)to the Alexandroff compactification.
C₀(α, β) is the type of continuous functions α → β which vanish at infinity from a
topological space to a metric space with a zero element.
When possible, instead of parametrizing results over (f : C₀(α, β)),
you should parametrize over (F : Type*) [ZeroAtInftyContinuousMapClass F α β] (f : F).
When you extend this structure, make sure to extend ZeroAtInftyContinuousMapClass.
- toFun : α → β
- continuous_toFun : Continuous self.toFun
- zero_at_infty' : Filter.Tendsto self.toFun (Filter.cocompact α) (nhds 0)
The function tends to zero along the
cocompactfilter.

ZeroAtInftyContinuousMapClass F α β states that F is a type of continuous maps which
vanish at infinity.

Algebraic structure #
Whenever β has suitable algebraic structure and a compatible topological structure, then
C₀(α, β) inherits a corresponding algebraic structure. The primary exception to this is that
C₀(α, β) will not have a multiplicative identity.

Metric structure #
When β is a metric space, then every element of C₀(α, β) is bounded, and so there is a natural
inclusion map ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.toBCF : C₀(α, β) → (α →ᵇ β). Via this map C₀(α, β)
inherits a metric as the pullback of the metric on α →ᵇ β. Moreover, this map has closed range
in α →ᵇ β and consequently C₀(α, β) is a complete space whenever β is complete.
Construct a bounded continuous function from a continuous function vanishing at infinity.

The type of continuous functions vanishing at infinity, with the uniform distance induced by the
inclusion ZeroAtInftyContinuousMap.toBCF, is a pseudo-metric space.

Convergence in the metric on C₀(α, β) is uniform convergence.
Continuous functions vanishing at infinity taking values in a complete space form a complete space.
Normed space #
The norm structure on C₀(α, β) is the one induced by the inclusion toBCF : C₀(α, β) → (α →ᵇ b),
viewed as an additive monoid homomorphism. Then C₀(α, β) is naturally a normed space over a normed
field 𝕜 whenever β is as well.

Star structure #
It is possible to equip C₀(α, β) with a pointwise star operation whenever there is a continuous
star : β → β for which star (0 : β) = 0. We don't have quite this weak a typeclass, but
StarAddMonoid is close enough.
The StarAddMonoid and NormedStarGroup classes on C₀(α, β) are inherited from their
counterparts on α →ᵇ β. Ultimately, when β is a C⋆-ring, then so is C₀(α, β).

C₀ as a functor #
For each β with sufficient structure, there is a contravariant functor C₀(-, β) from the
category of topological spaces with morphisms given by CocompactMaps.
Composition of a continuous function vanishing at infinity with a cocompact map yields another continuous function vanishing at infinity.
