Divisibility in the Stone-v{C}ech compactification

After defining continuous extensions of binary relations on the set N of natural numbers to its Stone-Cech compactification \beta N, we establish some results about one of such extensions. This provides us with one possible divisibility relation on \beta N and we introduce a few more, defined in a natural way. For some of them we find equivalent conditions for divisibility. Finally, we mention a few facts about prime and irreducible elements of (\beta N, \cdot). The motivation behind all this is to try to translate problems in number theory into \beta N.
