Abstract:

This paper deals with the size of the preimages of points of $\beta N \times \beta N$ under the continuous extension, $\tau$, of the identity map on $N \times N$. It is concerned with those points $(p,q)$ of $\beta N \times \beta N$ for which ${\tau ^{ - 1}}(p,q)$ is infinite and extends the work of Blass [1] who thoroughly considered those points with finite preimages.
