AbstractWe answer the following problem posed by Herrlich in the affirmative: “Can the Freudenthal compactification be regarded as a reflection in a sensible way?” This is accomplished by exploiting the one-to-one correspondence between proximities compatible with a given Tihonov space and compactifications of that space. We give topological characterizations of proximally continuous functions for the proximities associated with the Freudenthal and Fan-Gottesman compactifications.

Banaschewski (1963) and Frink (1964) generalized the compactification procedure of Wallman to obtain Hausdorff compactifications of Tychonoff spaces. Numerous papers have been devoted to the problem whether all Hausdorff compactifications may be obtained in this way, and for many classes of compactifications an affirmative answer has been given. This note is a contribution in this direction. We show that if a (Hausdorff) compactification αX of X is the quotient space of a Wallman compactification γX in such a way that the set of multiple points of αX with respect to γX is not too large, then αX too is a Wallman compactification. The results are generalizations of earlier results of Steiner and Steiner (1968) and by the author (1966) for the special case that γX is the Stone Čech-compactification.

Magill's and Rayburn's theorems on the homeomorphism of Stone-Čech remainders and some of their generalizations to the remainders of arbitrary Hausdorff compactifications of Tychonoff spaces are extended to some class of mappings.

A construction for all Hausdorff compactifications given in the article [2] is analysed further to obtain other topological extensions, namely, regular extensions and normal extensions. The method is also applied to derive and to study convex compactifications.

In this note we obtain a characterization of the class of convergence spaces for which Richardson's compactification is the largest Hausdorff compactification and a characterization of the class of convergence spaces which possess largest Hausdorff compactifications.

LetXbe a completely regular, Hausdorff space and letRbe the set of points inXwhich do not possess compact neighborhoods. AssumeRis compact. IfXhas a compactification with a countable remainder, then so does the quotientX/R, and a countable compactificatlon ofX/Rimplies one forX−R. A characterization of whenX/Rhas a compactification with a countable remainder is obtained. Examples show that the above implications cannot be reversed.
