compactification; mapping-extension
Summary:
The problem whether every topological space $X$ has a compactification $Y$ such that every continuous mapping $f$ from $X$ into a compact space $Z$ has a continuous extension from $Y$ into $Z$ is answered in the negative. For some spaces $X$ such compactifications exist.
