Abstract

For certain families of compact subsets of the plane, the isomorphism class of the algebra of absolutely continuous functions on a set is completely determined by the homeomorphism class of the set. This is analogous to the Gelfand–Kolmogorov theorem for C(K) spaces. In this paper, we define a family of compact sets comprising finite unions of convex curves and show that this family has the ‘Gelfand–Kolmogorov’ property.
