Free products of topological groups with central amalgamation. I

Subgroups of Free Topological Groups and Free Topological Products of Topological Groups

Introduction Our objectives are topological versions of the Nielsen-Schreier Theorem on subgroups of free groups, and the Kurosh Theorem on subgroups of free products of groups. It is known that subgroups of free topological groups need not be free topological [2, 6, and 9]. However we might expect a subgroup theorem when a continuous Schreier transversal exists, and we give such a result in th...

The character of free topological groups I

A systematic analysis is made of the character of the free and free abelian topological groups on uniform spaces and on topological spaces. In the case of the free abelian topological group on a uniform space, expressions are given for the character in terms of simple cardinal invariants of the family of uniformly continuous pseudometrics of the given uniform space and of the uniformity itself....

Free Boolean Topological Groups

Known and new results on free Boolean topological groups are collected. An account of the properties that these groups share with free or free Abelian topological groups and properties specific to free Boolean groups is given. Special emphasis is placed on the application of set-theoretic methods to the study of Boolean topological groups.
