We show that if one represents the universal completion of $\\mathcal{E}$ as $C^\\infty(K)$, then the Daniell functional calculus for continuous functions is exactly the pointwise composition of functions in $C^\\infty(K)$. This representation allows an easy deduction of the various properties of the functional calculus. Afterwards, we study discrete stopping times and stopped processes in $C^\\infty(K)$. We obtain a representation that is analogous to what is expected in probability theory.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-11-26T06:08:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "46A40", "46E05", "60G20", "60G40" ], "keywords": [ "continuous functions", "order complete vector lattice", "daniell functional calculus", "study discrete stopping times", "representation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
