Endomorphisms and Product Bases of the Baer-Specker Group
نویسنده
چکیده
The endomorphism ring of the group of all sequences of integers, the Baer-Specker group, is isomorphic to the ring of row finite infinite matrices over the integers. The product bases of that group are represented by the multiplicative group of invertible elements in that matrix ring. All products in the Baer-Specker group are characterized, and a lemma of László Fuchs regarding such products is revisited.

متن کاملIdempotent generated algebras and Boolean powers of commutative rings
Boolean powers were introduced by Foster [5]. It was noticed by Jónsson in the review of [6], and further elaborated by Banaschewski and Nelson [1], that the Boolean power of an algebra A by a Boolean algebra B can be described as the algebra of continuous functions from the Stone space of B to A, where A has the discrete topology. It follows that a Boolean power of the group Z is an `-group ge...
متن کاملM ay 2 00 7 SQUARES OF MENGER - BOUNDED GROUPS
Using a portion of the Continuum Hypothesis, we prove that there is a Menger-bounded (also called o-bounded) subgroup of the Baer-Specker group Z, whose square is not Mengerbounded. This settles a major open problem concerning boundedness notions for groups, and implies that Menger-bounded groups need not be Scheepers-bounded. This also answers some questions of Banakh, Nickolas, and Sanchis.
متن کاملReflexive Subgroups of the Baer-specker Group and Martin’s Axiom
In two recent papers [9, 10] we answered a question raised in the book by Eklof and Mekler [7, p. 455, Problem 12] under the set theoretical hypothesis of ♦א1 which holds in many models of set theory, respectively of the special continuum hypothesis (CH). The objects are reflexive modules over countable principal ideal domains R, which are not fields. Following H. Bass [1] an R-module G is refl...
