Abstract

Let κ be a regular uncountable cardinal. We shall give a criterion for certain reduced products ∏α<κGα/∏α<κ<Gα of torsion-free abelian groups Gα(α<κ) to be ℵ1-free. As an application we shall show that the norm of the Chase radical is ℵ1 in ZFC, a result which was previously known only under the assumption of the continuum hypothesis 2ℵ0=ℵ1.
