In this paper we consider the following problem: when does a space admit a sequentially compact T2 compactification? In the first section we develop a method to produce such compactifications, and we apply it in the second section to study the question using coverings. Moreover, we obtain solutions for locally compact T2 spaces, and for metrizable spaces.engjournal articlehttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0166864182900190#http://www.sciencedirect.comrestricted access515.1515.122.536Locally compact T2 spacesmetrizable spacessequentially compact spacecountably metacompact spaceF-sequential-compactificationTopología1210 Topología
