Strong shape of the Stone-Čech compactification

چکیده
J. Keesling has shown that for connected spaces X the natural inclusion e : X → βX of X in its Stone-Čech compactification is a shape equivalence if and only if X is pseudocompact. This paper establishes the analogous result for strong shape. Moreover, pseudocompact spaces are characterized as spaces which admit compact resolutions, which improves a result of I. Lončar.

On matrix points in Čech–Stone compactifications of discrete spaces
We prove the existence of (2 , τ)-matrix points among uniform and regular points of Čech–Stone compactification of uncountable discrete spaces and discuss some properties of these points.
متن کاملAlgebra and Topology in the Stone-Čech Compactification
The Stone-Čech compactification of discrete semigroups is a tool of central importance in several areas of mathematics, and has been studied extensively. We think of the Stone-Čech compactification of a discrete abelian semigroup G as the set βG of ultrafilters on G, where the point x ∈ G is identified with the principal ultrafilter {A ⊆ G ∣∣x ∈ A}, and the basic open sets are those of the form...
متن کاملDegenerate Fibres in the Stone-čech Compactification of the Universal Bundle of a Finite Group
Applied to a continuous surjection π : E → B of completely regular Hausdorff spaces E and B, the Stone-Čech compactification functor β yields a surjection βπ : βE → βB. For an n-fold covering map π, we show that the fibres of βπ, while never containing more than n points, may degenerate to sets of cardinality properly dividing n. In the special case of the universal bundle π : EG → BG of a p-gr...

متن کاملThe Stone-Čech compactification of Tychonoff spaces
A topological space X is said to be completely regular if whenever F is a nonempty closed set and x ∈ X \F , there is a continuous function f : X → [0, 1] such that f(x) = 0 and f(F ) = {1}. A completely regular space need not be Hausdorff. For example, ifX is any set with more than one point, then the trivial topology, in which the only closed sets are ∅ and X, is vacuously completely regular,...
