Abstract:

A filter F on a space S is completely regular if the complement of each set in F is completely separated from some set in F. A characterization of the Stone-Čech compactification due to Alexandroff is used to establish the following theorem. Suppose K is a subspace of a Tychonoff space S. K is ${C^ \ast }$-embedded in S if and only if the trace on K of every maximal completely regular filter on S intersecting K is maximal completely regular on K. A similar characterization of the C-embedded subsets of a Tychonoff space is obtained as are several related results.
