Abstract: Abstract To each polyhedral cone decomposition of ℝ n correspond two compactifications. The first was introduced by Ash et al [1] in the context of toroidal compactifications. The second is related to Karpelevič’s compactification of a symmetric space of noncompact type. For such spaces, the closure of a maximal flat subspace in a Martin compactification coincides with one of the compactifications given by the decomposition into Weyl chambers, the bottom of the positive spectrum corresponding to the first compactification.
