Abstract: Let $X$ be a compact metrizable abelian group and $mathbfu=u_n$ be a sequence in its dual $X^{wedge}$. Set $s_{mathbfu}(X)=x:(u_n,x)o1$ and $mathbb{T}_0^H=(z_n)inmathbb{T}^{infty}:z_{n}o1$. Let $G$ be a subgroup of $X$. We prove that $G=s_{mathbfu}(X)$ for some $mathbfu$ iff it can be represented as some dually closed subgroup $G_{mathbfu}$ of ${mCl}_{X}Gimesmathbb{T}_0^H$. In particular, $s_{mathbfu}(X)$ is polishable. Let $mathbfu=u_n$ be a $T$-sequence. Denote by $(widehatX,mathbfu)$ the group $X^{wedge}$ equipped with the finest group topology in which $u_{n}o0$. It is proved that $(widehatX,mathbfu{)}^{wedge}=G_{mathbfu}$ and $mathbfn(widehatX,mathbfu)=s_{mathbfu}(X{)}^{perp}$. We also prove that the group generated by a Kronecker set can not be characterized.

Review text

Let \(X\) be an infinite metrizable compact abelian group and \(\mathfrak u=\{u_n\}\) a sequence of its characters. A subgroup \(Y\) is said to be characterized by \(\mathfrak u\) if it consists of those elements \(x\in X\) for which \(\lim_{n\to \infty} u_n(x)=0\). It is proved that every characterized subgroup of a compact metrizable abelian group admits a locally quasi-convex Polish group topology. It is also proved that if \(X\) is an infinite compact metrizable abelian group and \(K\) an uncountable Kronecker set, then the subgroup \(\langle K\rangle\) generated by \(K\) cannot be characterized. Furthermore, let \(\mathfrak u=\{u_n\}\) be a sequence of elements of the dual group \(\widehat{X}\) for which there exists a Hausdorff group topology such that \(\lim_{n\to \infty}u_n=0\). Denote by \((\widehat{X},\mathfrak u)\) the group \(\widehat{X}\) furnished with the finest group topology with this property. The author calculates the dual group of \((\widehat{X},\mathfrak u)\) and its von Neumann radical. A characterization of reflexive groups \((\widehat{X},\mathfrak u)\) is given. The paper contains other interesting assertions.
