The Smirnov compactification as a quotient space of the Stone-Čech compactification

T.B.M. McMaster

Pure Mathematics Department, Queen' s University, Belfast BT7 1NN, Ireland

Abstract

For a separated proximity space, a decomposition of the Stone-Čech compactification is presented which produces the Smirnov compactification and its basic properties by elementary arguments without recourse to clusters or totally bounded uniformities.
