This leads to the definition of holonomic D-Modules as those with the minimal dimension n, and these modules play a great role in the geometric Langlands program.
The Gelfand–Naimark–Segal construction is a particularly important example of the use of this technique.
Vladimir Berkovich reformulated much of the theory of rigid analytic spaces in the late 1980s, using a generalization of the notion of Gelfand spectrum for commutative unital C*-algebras.
