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