Since Helmer's 1940 paper [9] laid the foundations for the study of the ideal theory of the ring A(ℂ) of entire functions, many interesting results have been obtained for the rings A(X) of analytic functions on non-compact connected Riemann surfaces. For example, the partially ordered set Spec (A(ℂ) of prime ideals of A(ℂ) has been described by Henrikson and others [2], [10], [11]. Also, it has been shown by Ailing [4] that Spec(A(ℂ))sSpec(A(X)) as topological spaces for any non-compact connected Riemann surface X. Many results on the valuation theory of A(X) have also been obtained [1], [2]. In this note we show that a large portion of the results on the rings A(X) extend to the W-rings with complete principal divisor space which were defined by J. Klingen in [15], [16]. Therefore, many properties of A(ℂ) are shared by its non-archimedian counterparts studied by M. Lazard, M. Krasner, and others [8], [17], [18].
