[For the entire collection se Zbl 0732.00008.] The author summarizes results about ends of complex homogeneous spaces. Outlines of proofs are given. Let be \(X\) such a space, \(G\) a Lie group acting holomorphically on it, not necessarily complex, \(H\) the isotropy subgroup and \(e(X)\) the number of ends of \(X\). Denote by \(O(X)\) the space of holomorphic functions on \(X\). Three ingredients give the so-called basic philosophy: 1) A topological fibration lemma of Ahiezier gives information about \(e(X)\). 2) Compute \(e(X)\) with this lemma when you have sufficiently many fibrations. 3) Conversely, use \(e(X)\) to restrict the possibility of fibrations. The following cases are studied: {1) a)} \(G\) complex and \(e(X)>1\). Then \(e(X)=2\) and one characterizes \(X\) as a fiber bundle. {b)} same type of results when \(O(X)=\mathbb{C}\) and \(e(X)=2\). 2) Characterization of Kähler spaces \(X\) with \(e(X)>1\). This uses results of F. Berteloot and K. Oeljeklaus. 3) At the end of the paper, the author proves a result about ends for a fibration \(G/\hat H\to G/H\) where \(G\) is complex, \(H\) closed complex with a finite number of connected components, and \(\hat H\) is a union of connected components of \(H\). Examples are given which shows that the result cannot, in many ways, be extended. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0763.53002].
