On asymorphisms of groups

Abstract: Let

G

,

H

be groups and

k a p p a

be a cardinal. A bijection

f : G o H

is caled on asymorphism if, for any

X i n [G]^{< k a p p a}

,

Y i n [H]^{< k a p p a}

, there exist

X^{'} i n [G]^{< k a p p a}

,

Y^{'} i n [H]^{< k a p p a}

such that for all

x i n G

and

y i n H

, we have

f (X x) s u b s e t e q Y^{'} f (x)

,

f^{- 1} (Y y) s u b s e t e q X^{'} f^{- 1} (y)

. For a set

S

,

[S]^{< k a p p a}

denotes the set

S^{'} s u b s e t e q S : | S^{'} | < k a p p a

. Let

k a p p a

and

g a m m a

be cardinals such that

a l e p h_{0} < k a p p a l e g a m m a

. We prove that any two Abelian groups of cardinality

g a m m a

are

k a p p a

-asymorphic, but the free group of rank

g a m m a

is not

k a p p a

-asymorphic to an Abelian group provided that either

k a p p a < g a m m a

or

k a p p a = g a m m a

and

k a p p a

is a singular cardinal. It is known [7] that if

g a m m a = k a p p a

and

k a p p a

is regular then any two groups of cardinality

k a p p a

are

k a p p a

-asymorphic.
