Abstract: The ad`ele ring mathbbAK of a global field K is a locally compact, metrizable topological ring which is complete with respect to any invariant metric on mathbbAK. For a fixed global field F and a possibly infinite algebraic extension E/F, there is a natural partial ordering on mathbbAK:FsubseteqKsubseteqE. Therefore, we may form the direct limit [ mathbb A_E = varinjlim mathbb A_K ] which provides one possible generalization of ad`ele rings to arbitrary algebraic extensions E/F. In the case where E/F is Galois, we define an alternate generalization of the ad`eles, denoted , to be a certain metrizable topological ring of continuous functions on the set of places of E. We show that is isomorphic to the completion of mathbbAE with respect to any invariant metric and use this isomorphism to establish several topological properties of mathbbAE.
