Abstract

We investigate certain topological properties of the normal functor H, introduced by the first author, which is a certain functorial compactification of the Hartman-Mycielski construction HM. We prove that H is always open and we also find the condition when H X is an absolute retract, homeomorphic to the Tychonov cube.
