The main results of the paper give necessary and sufficient conditions as well as sufficient conditions that continuous bijections of a manifold onto itself be homeomorphisms. Such conditions include the embedding of manifolds, preserving ends, preserving closed half-rays and restrictions on boundary components. A number of counterexamples are given to likely conjectures.
