A remark on proper partitions of unity

Abstract

In this paper we introduce, by means of the category of exterior spaces and using a process that generalizes the Alexandroff compactification, an analogue notion of numerable covering of a space in the proper and exterior setting. An application is given for fibrewise proper homotopy equivalences.
