Abstract

Hopfian groups have been a topic of interest in alge-braic settings for many years. In this work a natural generalizationof the notion, so-called R-Hopficity is introduced. Basic propertiesof R-Hopfian groups are developed and the question of whether ornot infinite direct products of copies of the integers are R-Hopfian isconsidered. An unexpected result is that the answer to this purelyalgebraic question depends on the set theory assumed.
