Abstract

We show that if kappa <= omega and there exists a group topology without non-trivial convergent sequences on an Abelian group H such that H-n is countably compact for each n < kappa then there exists a topological group G such that G(n) is countably compact for each n < kappa and G(kappa) is not countably compact. If in addition H is torsion, then the result above holds for kappa = omega(1). Combining with other results in the literature, we show that: a) Assuming c incomparable selective ultrafilters, for each n is an element of omega, there exists a group topology on the free Abelian group G such that G(n) is countably compact and G(n+1) is not countably compact. (It was already know for omega). b) If a kappa is an element of omega boolean OR [omega] boolean OR [omega(1)], there exists in ZFC a topological group G such that G(gamma) is countably compact for each cardinal gamma < kappa and G(kappa) is not countably compact.
