| contents | Motivated by recent work on the use of topological methods to study collections of rings between an integral domain and its quotient field, we examine spaces of subrings of a commutative ring, where these spaces are endowed with the Zariski or patch topologies. We introduce three notions to study such a space $X$: patch bundles, patch presheaves and patch algebras. When $X$ is compact and Hausdorff, patch bundles give a way to approximate $X$ with topologically more tractable spaces, namely Stone spaces. Patch presheaves encode the space $X$ into stalks of a presheaf of rings over a Boolean algebra, thus giving a more geometrical setting for studying $X$. To both objects, a patch bundle and a patch presheaf, we associate what we call a patch algebra, a commutative ring that efficiently realizes the rings in $X$ as factor rings, or even localizations, and whose structure reflects various properties of the rings in $X$. |
