  We present an idea of unifying small scale (topology, proximity spaces,
uniform spaces) and large scale (coarse spaces, large scale spaces). It relies
on an analog of multilinear forms from Linear Algebra. Each form has a large
scale compactification and those include all well-known compactifications:
Higson corona, Gromov boundary of hyperbolic spaces, the visual boundary of
CAT(0)-spaces, \v Cech-Stone compactification, Samuel-Smirnov compactification,
and Freudenthal compactification.
  As an application we get simple proofs of results generalizing well-known
theorems from coarse topology. A new result (at least to the author) is the
following (see \ref{HomeoOfHigsonImpliesLSEquivalence}):\\ \emph{A coarse
bornologous function $f:X\to Y$ of metrizable large scale spaces is a large
scale equivalence if and only if it induces a homeomorphism of Higson coronas.}
  This paper is an extension of \cite{JD2} and, at the same time, it overrides
\cite{JD2}.
