8 Whitehead <strong>Groups</strong> Under Martin’s Axiom 527 We now formulate our findings in Theorem 8.3 (Shelah [1] (ZFC+MA+ :CH)). There exist Whitehead groups of cardinality @ 1 which are not free. ut Undecidability of the Whitehead Problem From Theorems 7.7 and 8.3 we now conclude: Corollary 8.4 (Shelah [1]). The Whitehead problem is undecidable in ZFC. ut F Notes. The history of W-groups is replete with unsuccessful attempts, furnishing meager information about the groups. The solution of the Whitehead problem in 1973 by Shelah was the first undecidable result in abelian group theory, and became the starting point of a new era in the theory, dominated by set-theoretical methods. The discovery of several unsolvable problems followed suit. The methods were extended to module theory, and today there is a vast amount of literature dealing with problems that can be traced back to the Whitehead problem, as witnessed by the excellent monograph by Eklof–Mekler [EM]. For a relatively easy proof for the undecidability, Eklof [3] is recommended. Numerous publications deal with variants of the Whitehead problem, imposing various conditions on the model of set theory. For example Shelah [3], where CH is assumed. Rychkov [2] considers the problem of vanishing Pext that is reminiscent to the Whitehead problem. Assume A; C are groups satisfying jAj < jCj D . If is a regular cardinal, and C . < / is a filtration of C with pure subgroups, then Pext.C; A/ D 0 holds exactly if Pext.C ; A/ D 0 and Pext.C C1 =C ; A/ D 0 for all < . He also establishes a kind of singular compactness result by proving that if is singular, then Pext.C; A/ D 0 if and only if Pext.X; A/ D 0 for all pure subgroups X of C of cardinality
