On the compactification of concave ends
  Let X be a complex manifold of dimension 2, which admits a strictly plurisubharmonic function r which is proper as a function with values in the intervall ]inf r, sup r[. We prove that the concave end of X can be compactified, if and only if, the first cohomology of X is Hausdorff.
