Abstract:
If $\alpha X$ is a compactification of a locally compact space X, then the remainder associated with $\alpha X$ is the space $\alpha X\backslash X$. Frequently spaces which are quite different may have families of remainders which are related. This must be reflected somehow in the structure of the spaces. This paper studies one possible formulation of that similarity and its consequences.References
