Tate algebra

In rigid analysis, a branch of mathematics, the Tate algebra over a complete ultrametric field k, named for John Tate, is the subring R of the formal power series ring consisting of such that as . The maximal spectrum of R is then a rigid-analytic space.

Define the Gauss norm of in R by

This makes R a Banach k-algebra.

With this norm, any ideal of is closed and is a finite field extension of ground field .
