In previous papers (7; 8), we have investigated certain properties of general function algebras which may be regarded as generalizations or analogues of familiar results in the theory of analytic functions of several complex variables. This investigation is continued and expanded in the present paper. The main results concern a notion of holomorphic convexity for the general situation. We also extend somewhat several of the results obtained in the earlier papers.
