Compact condensations of Hausdorff spaces

Abstract

In this paper, we continue to study one of the classic problems in general topology raised by P.S. Alexandrov: when a Hausdorff space $X$ has a continuous bijection (a condensation) onto a compactum? We concentrate on the situation when not only $X$ but also $X\setminus Y$ can be condensed onto a compactum whenever the cardinality of $Y$ does not exceed certain $\tau$.
