We also prove that it is consistent that there is a group A such that Ext(A,Z) is torsion and Hom(A,Z)=0. As an application we show the consistency of the existence of new co-Moore spaces.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-08-29T22:30:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20K35", "20K20", "03E35", "03E75", "13L05", "18G15", "55N10" ], "keywords": [ "non-reflexive whitehead group", "consistent", "co-moore spaces", "dual group" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "1999math......8157E" } } }
