Remote points in $\beta X$
It is known that in general convergence by sequences is not enough to account for all points in $\beta X \setminus X$, where $\beta X$ refers to the Stone-Cech compactification of a topological space $...

Is the absolute of a compact space the projective limit of the Stone-Čech compactifications of its open dense subsets?
Is the following statement true, and if it is, does someone have a reference?
Let $X$ be a compact (i.e., compact and Hausdorff) topological space. Then the Gleason space (=Iliadis absolute, =...

Is $C_b(Q,E)$ linearly isometrically isomorphic to $C(\beta Q,E)$ where $\beta Q$ is the Stone–Čech compactification of $Q$?
Let $Q$ be a locally compact Hausdorff space and $E$ be a Banach space.
Let $C(Q)$ be the collection of all real-valued continuous functions on $Q$ and $C_b(Q,E)$ be the collection of all $E$-valued ...

Stone-Cech compactification of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and smooth functions
I am currently attending a course where we are now covering the Stone-Cech compactification. Today we proved in some detail that extensions of bounded smooth functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ to $\beta\...
