“…If instead of n-spheres we use sequences of n-spheres converging to infinity, then we obtain the Brown-Grossman proper homotopy groups π N q , see [1,15]. On the other hand, if we move an n-sphere continuously towards infinity, we get infinite semitubes which represent elements of the Steenrod proper homotopy groups, see [5,7,8]. The analog of the previous groups have been considered for the category of exterior spaces, see [9,10].…”
