Hausdorff compactifications

Abstract: Previously, the authors used the insights of Robinson's non-standard analysis as a powerful tool to extend and simplify the construction of some compactifications of regular spaces. They now show that any Hausdorff compactification is obtainable with their method.


The authors show that each Hausdorff compactification of a Tychonoff space \(X\) can be obtained as a quotient of \(^*X\) where \(^*X\) is a \(\kappa\)-saturated nonstandard extension of \(X\), such that \(\kappa\) is greater than the cardinality of the topology of \(X\), endowed with the natural topology. They give applications to moduli spaces and potential theory.
