    The topological Hawaiian earring group does not embed in the inverse limit of free groups

    Full text link
    Endowed with natural topologies, the fundamental group of the Hawaiian earring continuously injects into the inverse limit of free groups. This note shows the injection fails to have a continuous inverse. Such a phenomenon was unexpected and appears to contradict results of another author.Comment: Published by Algebraic and Geometric Topology at http://www.maths.warwick.ac.uk/agt/AGTVol5/agt-5-64.abs.htm
