Extract

Notation and results. The main results of this paper are (a) a new proof of the canonical Schoenflies theorem and (b) a non-compact version of the canonical Schoen-flies theorem.

The result (a) is already known(5); the existing proof is based on the proof by Brown of the ordinary Schoenflies theorem, whereas ours is based on that of Mazur and Morse.
