| Research Abstract |
Let F(X) and A(X) be the free topological group and the free abelian topological group on a topological space X, respectively. For each natural number n, F_n(X) denotes a subspace of F(X) consisting of all words whose length are less than or equal to n. In the abelian case, we. use A_n(X) to denote the same subspace of A(X). Then, each F_n(X) is a continuous image by the natural mapping i_n from the space (X【symmetry】X^<-1>【symmetry】{e})^n, where e is the unit element of F(X).
In 1989, Arhangel'skii, Okunev and Pestov asked whether for a metric space X, the tightness of A(X) is equal to the weight of the space of all non-isolated points of X. In this research, we proved that the answer is affirmative under the set-theoretic axiom V=L. Furthermore, in the non-abelian case, we proved that for a metric space X, the tightness of F(X) is equal to the weight of X under the set-theoretic axiom V=L.
For last 3 years, we got an answer to an old problem "Find a necessary and sufficient condition of a space X such that each mapping i_n is a quotient mapping", when X is metrizable. That is, we characterized a metrizable space X such that the mapping i_n is a quotient mapping for each natural number n for both F(X) and A(X), respectively.
