Starting from a nonempty set X and a commutative semigroup G acting on X
we construct a new space B(X,G) whose algebraic character is similar to a quotient field. The
construction of the quotient field from an integral domain is a special case of our construction.
Other interpretations of the construction include the space of Schwartz distributions of finite order,
tempered distributions, Radon measures, and Boehmians.
¶ In this paper we describe the construction of B(X,G), discuss some general properties of B(X,G),
and present some applications of the construction.
