β¦ Synopsis
An Abelian square-free substitution on four letters is exhibited.
We derive that. on a fourletter alphabet, the number of Abelian square-free words of each length grows exponentially. infinite Abelian square-free words are uncountable and the monoid of Abelian square-free endomorphisms is not finitely generated.

The problem of classifying words on four letters into equivalence classes under the operations of conjugacy and reverse complementation is solved by using a surjective mapping to words on two letters of even length. This classification problem for words on four letters arises in the study of DNA seq
We show under MA(Ο -centered) the existence of at least (2 Ο ) + non-homeomorphic topological group topologies on the free Abelian group of size 2 Ο which make it countably compact and separable. In particular, under GCH the maximum possible number of such topologies is attained. As a corollary, we
