The Martin compactification of a bounded Lipschitz domain D ⊂ R n is shown to be D ‾ for a large class of uniformly elliptic second order partial differential operators on D .Let X be an open Riemannian manifold and let M ⊂ X be open relatively compact, connected, with Lipschitz boundary. Then M ‾ is the Martin compactification of M associated with the restriction to M of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on X . Consequently an open Riemannian manifold X has at most one compactification which is a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary whose interior is X .
