A compactification αX of the space X is called an n -point compactification if the remainder αX — X consists of exactly n points. K. D. Magill [5] showed that if Y has an n-point compactification and if f:X→ f(x) = Y is a compact continuous mapping of the space X onto Y, then X also has an n-point compactification.
