A pair () is a ringed space if it is a subsheaf of rings with 1 of the sheaf of germs of continuous functions on X. If U is an open subset of X, we denote the set of sections over U relative to by . If , then implies that there exists some open neighbourhood V of u, V ⊂ U, and some g continuous on V such that the germ of g at u, ug is ϕ(u). Now we define ϕ(u) (u) to be g(u) and in this way we obtain, in a unique fashion, a continuous complex-valued function on U. The collection of all such functions for a given set is denoted by and is called the -holomorphic functions on U.
THEOREM. Let X be a locally connected Hausdorff space and () a ringed space.
