Extensions and new observations of Tychonoff,Stone-Weierstrass theorems,compactifications and the realcompactification

An extension of the Tychonoff theorem is obtained in characterizing a compact space by the nets and the images induced by any family of continuous functions on it. The idea of this extension is applied to get a new process and new observations of compactifications and the realcompactification. Finally, a sufficient and necessary condition of a vector sublattice or a subalgebra of C¹(X) to be dense in (C¹(X),∥·∥) is provided in terms of the nets in X induced by C¹(X), where C¹(X) is the space of all bounded real continuous functions on a topological space X with pointwise ordering, and ∥·∥ is the supremum norm.
