Abstract

We consider the following question: for which metrizable separable spaces does the free abelian topological group isomorphically embed into . While for many natural spaces such an embedding exists, our main result shows that if is a Cook continuum or is a rigid Bernstein set, then does not embed into as a topological subgroup. The analogous statement is true for the free boolean group .
