Fundamental groups and their automorphisms (group-theoretic aspects) (20F34) Group actions on manifolds and cell complexes in low dimensions (57M60) Topological properties of groups of homeomorphisms or diffeomorphisms (57S05) Compact groups of homeomorphisms (57S10)

Abstract: We show sufficient criteria for a group of homeomorphisms acting on a metric space X to extend to one acting on a given compactification of X. We give examples for when this can fail when one of the criteria is not met.
