Introduction. All spaces considered in this paper are assumed to be (Hausdorff) completely regular, and all maps are continuous. Let be a topological property of spaces. We shall identify
with the class of spaces having
. A space having
is called a
-space, and a subspace of a
-space is called a
-regular space. The class of
-regular spaces is denoted by R(
). Following [37], we call a closed hereditary, productive, topological property
such that each
-regular space has a
-regular compactification a topological extension property, or simply, an extension property. In this paper, we restrict our attention to extension properties
satisfying the following axioms:
(A1) The two-point discrete space has .
(A2) If each -regular space of nonmeasurable cardinal has
, then
= R(
).
