How do we show the one point compactification of the positive integers is homeomorphic to the set K={0} U {1/n : n is a positive integer}?
Say Y is the one point compactification of the positive integers. I know Y must contain Z+ and Y\Z+ is a single point. Also Y is a compact Hausdorff space.
But I am not sure how to show this.
