Abstract

We study here the poset DP(X) of density preserving continuous maps defined on a Hausdorff sapce X and show that it is a complete lattice for a compact Hausdorff space without isolated points. We further show that for countably compact T3 spaces X and Y without isolated points, DP(X) and DP(Y) are order isomorphic if and only if X and Y are homeomorphic. Finally, Magill's result on the remainder of a locally compact Hausdorff space is deduced from the relation of DP(X) with posets IP(X) of covering maps and EK (X) of compactifications respectively.
